Keep posting the pics as you go I had no idea that was a wa car,i typed thats series of vl into google and that one caught my eye. As it's perfect. Unfortunately all ihave left to do is tidy up the underside and wheel arches then it goes on hold for a good year.. As I'm doing a couple of big over seas trips next year... But then I've told the mrs, I'm sinking some $$$$ into to make it progress. I'm fed up of it looking like this! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just read the whole thing so far zap. Sounds like a pretty tuff build mate, but it will all come together soon mate. Love your ideas man, this thing will be crazy. Good luck with everything man Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Thanks mate

Rod Andrews Racecars sell those quick release pins http://www.andrewsracecars.com.au/product_118.html

Thanks mate

the rear quater got a bit damp in those storms, so when it comes time for the paint job iill get it rubbed back. talked to a couple of shops and they said they would only do it, if they bare metal it.

Just paint it yourself! Your car can look equally as good as my "orange peel" VL lolol

haha, i did look into doing that course i asked you about ink, but i didnt have the spare funds or time. id love to be able to paint my own car, but i think i would end up cutting a few small corners and be dissapointed with it in the end.

Yeah I just painted ink to get less cop attention and it back on the road, itching to paint another car over summer...practise makes perfect!

The reason why most panel shops will want to do it bare metal themselves is because at the end of the day, there putting there name on it. A good paint job is all in the prep work. If you cut corners prepping it, it will show in the final product. Take your time and get it done right the first time.

thats what i was thinking aswell, i wont be cutting corners with the paint job thats for sure.
