This ones for you Devilrod.

For my 2 cents worth, you can have to much of a good thing.
Your laced roof & dash is just Spot On.
Its great to see old skool trends reserected.

I'd love to see a deep metallic purple FB,
with lavender matillac lace job with fogged edges
within the side flash. Cooool!!!!
Complete with reversed chrome rims.

Funny thing is I had to restrain the painter :shock: , he was talking fish scales, lace and fogging!!!! Among other things. Sometimes restraint is needed and pays off. By the way thanks.

I've heard that too, does Darryl still own it??

You hear that some of these older hottie's are parked up in sheds but I think a lot of these stories are "urban myths"

Anyone know for sure?

Pretty sure Darryl still has it. He's a friend of a friend so I'll ask him.

I'd love to do our wagon with a full lace Watson style panel paint, tasmans and wide whites. Mrs isn't so keen, but have got the tick for some satin paint and a metallic roof.

To me, that baby is the original HOT EK of all time. It seems to have gained a roll pan and wonky mirrors over time, but how about it still being around the place, and with it's original plates. Iv'e got Wolsley 24/80 vents, no holes in the guards as yet! I must still be basically a Nasco restoration Hound!
