trev haven't you noticed how often gary is on here :shock: but as you say yor a butcher and from what i can see yor doing a great job all yorself, i think if you had a time limit you'de put more time in, another thing how many kids does gary have that's gotta be a distraction for you.....on the other hand sounds like an excuse to spend more time in the shed :lol:
I could come up with plenty of (half arsed) excuses but having the drive and skills would help :roll: , Trev 8) .

That's awesome. You've done an incredible job building a car that looks (and no doubt performs) top notch, in a time frame that would put many in the profession to shame. I'm also looking forward to hearing you wind it up.
Cheers, Scott

Cheers Guys!!

Here are some pics doing the detailing and some outdoor shots, have not mowed the lawn (don't know why :roll: :roll: ) so I took the pics on the drive. Since these pics were taken the "Badges" have been fitted, waited till the polymer coat was applied before fitting them (these pics are before the final detail was finished).

She is now all strapped down on the trailer, it is back in the shed (on the trailer) having the last bits done then we will be ready to hit the road at 4am! Plan is Alice Springs tomorrow night.


This is Rick hard at it, everytime he touches it the shine gets better..... top painter/panel beater and a bloody top mate!
