love the gauge face, and how can you guys strip them so far back?? i'd be too scared i never put it back together.. lol

hows the gold / black pearl look??

grothie1978 · Post by **grothie1978** » Thu Dec 28, 2006 7:13 pm

ive stripped every project back this far atleast (no 22 project car the stazza is)
the gold with black pearl is on the gauge face, notice the difference (besides the black throw dots) and the gold on the car, it looks deeper

but thanks for the kind words champ
(xmas holidays from work certainly came in handy for the stazza and work around the house) :beer oh and a bit more than usual on the :beer rofl

At least the gauge surround colouring matches the passenger side of the car

yeah true
just wanted to put a flash coat on to see if my panelwork in those areas was good, was impressed so been hookin in hard
hopefully should have car body done by sunday, then do doors, bonnet etc and throw back together, 2-3 final coats then cut, clear, cut n buff

hope all goes to plan
as for the otherside its still in guide coat coz they were the damaged areas
lil more panelwork still

Wow, loving that colour man, really looks tits. Your a lucky bastard, no rust on that panel just infront of your windscreen, in the middle. Mines eaten to shizzle there.

Do you plan to fit white guages on your instrument cluster too as that would complete the look and match with your boost guage. Its all looking good but how did u manage to take a photo on the 29 when you made the post on the 28th, tell us your time travelling secrets :D
