Is it a shop or just some mates doing the body and paint for you in the USA?
Was thinking of having something similar done over there.

Rob,
I think Scott is still away in the Us, his car is here in Australia.

Ohhh I like that a lot

Looking fine Scott. That colour will have many variations as it reacts with light. Good choice.

Some pics from December...

So, my resto project was ticked off as complete today, ready one day before the Feb Cars & Coffee.
It was completed quite close to budget (within +5%) and one month late, due to a pesky oil leak and the Xmas break.
Very happy with the end result, and the market value of the car has outpaced my project cost. Perhaps this a rare alignment of the moons, and I don't think this will happen again in my lifetime...

My biggest satisfaction was seeing the engine roar to life after doing a complete engine rebuild. It's now running really nicely, and the car - with only 44,000 miles on the clock - is a dream to drive.

This car has now officially departed the Urban Barn Find category.

Love that colour and great to see the car restored.

Looks like you have AC fitted - was that an original option?

Cheers
