Finally underway again.......

[FCRB26]

I really like my grey and cream there was a full resto wagon on here last year looked great.
Indian ivory and volcanic grey.

[JOX515]

Long overdue for an update....

Body and all panels prepped ready for paint, car starts, drives (really well) and stops, lights, indicators, hazards, wipers, heater and stereo all working. 




Now back to the garage to continue sorting out all the bits and pieces that came off the wagon and cleaning them, polishing them, making sure I have all the nuts, bolts and screws, chasing up what is missing, etc etc etc

Going to tight for the nats, but JOX515 will be there....

Cheers, Graeme

The little time consuming fiddly things...

Are they rally wheels or Volvo wheels? I'm guessing rally wheels because of the centre caps? They look cool regardless.

Cheers,

Josh.

[JOX515]

Very time consuming little things  :)

The wheels are 15 x 7 Chev rally wheels with the corvette caps.

G'day Graeme, good to see another RB30 wagon coming together, I know what you mean re the depression bit, it can be a hard monkey to get off your back, one day at a time is all we can do.  :) :)

Thanks for the kind words Pedro, I have my bad days still but overall feeling ok.  Looking forward to getting the wagon on the road.....

I love your wagon and if mine comes up half as nice as yours I will be very very happy.  Will get some more pics up soon.

Cheers, Graeme

[JOX515]

Note to self - take bloody camera when visiting painter......

Body is now all prepped ready for paint, should have it back by the 15th.

Now to start the jigsaw puzzle in the garage - part a gets attached to part b with bolt z  lol

The wagon will be at the nats :-)

[FCV08]

Looking forward to seeing the wagon

Cheers Craig D

[JOX515]

Yeeha, back from the painters........





I have 23 days to get it all back together for a week of shakedown / debugging then off to the nats on the 17th.

Let the fun begin....   :)

Whoa!

[ridgey_didge]

There is nothing like a deadline to concentrate the  mind.  Good luck - I'll be looking over your car in Hobart in one month's time.

Cheers
David

[JOX515]

And I will be looking forward to driving it there and showing it off.  Am as happy as a dog with 2 dicks at the moment  ;D ;D ;D

[JB]

That's awesome mate!!! Hope it all goes back together smoothly for you.

Cheers
JB

[NES304]

Now why do I have 5 left over screws ???

[JOX515]

They must belong to the wife's car NES  ;D ;)

[JOX515]

Only the bonnet to collect from the painters.....






Might have a door rubber nite tonite - fit and glue the inners and trial fit the outers, wax pencil marks to line up to, then glue bit by bit.

And might do bling on the rear quarters.  Still looking for 2 Station Sedan badges

Cheers, Graeme

[fcwrangler]

Just noticed the dash, how are you going to the switches and ignition ?
Jim

[JOX515]

G'day Jim,

Am running a commodore column, so everything bar wipers is on the column.  Wipers have their own switch just to the right of the instrument panel.  After the nats, I will be putting in another column with everything on it, including wipers and cruise control.

Cheers, Graeme
