A mammoth effort to date, and it looks sweet as in its current state. perhaps one of the best old holdens ever retroteched

Well I've been caught out, and I must admit I do have a team working on the car

Main worker - myself

Drink suppliers - son & daughter

Food supply - wife

Security - Oscar & Bella (my dogs)

Blacky, I will slow down when I'm driving it.

Cheers and thanks for the kind words.

i don't think it's that he's going flat out

speaking from experiance i think it is he's got a plan, doesn't talk about it goes out and does it, and doesn't have a nagging missus in his ear whinging about the time he's spending on the car

Reeeve Reeevve

Yes it is alive, motor is all finished and going

. If I didn't forget to paint the tailshaft I could have driven it out of the shed today. Only need to gas up the A/C & add coolant in the radiator and everything in the engine bay is finished.

No pickies as the camera has shit itself.

Back to work tomorrow thank god, as Iam stuffed and need a break.
Will be painting the tailshaft tomorrow night and should be able to try its first drive out the driveway on Thursday. Spoke with the trimmer yesterday and he is saying all trim work will be finished within 2 weeks.

So now it back into painting the rest of the panels.

Yamba is looking good.

Cheers
