The post for the month.... :)

Just great to see a quality restoration! Colour suits the car!

I hope the plastic pieces such as the front grill, rear number plate garnish, the sticky part of the rear bumper will be done in black :wink:
The same colour will be a bit of an overkill! Side mirrors look better using the body colour though!

Looking forward to the final stage! :beer

Niiice. Tho I do love white.

There has been a couple of purple ones: I think DDPhil had one but I don't think he finished it. Another bloke in NSW who had a complete custom interior, big stereo setup, and custom graphics down the sides had his for sale a while back too.
