Car & chrome looks good Mal, make sure the hubcaps are steel & not the stainless steel variety (s/steel are lighter in weight & will only require polishing)

Sounds like he may be a good chromer to send a bulk order to.

cheers jack

ps   Two friends ('fussy bastards') have had work done by Classic Chrome - they're very happy

painted my mats today do you think their two red?

Congrats, your mats look great, and so does your project  ;D

I think that the flash is making them look redder than they would be in real life.

Here's the one that my brother painted for Fast Eddie's wagon. The paint spatter was matched perfectly to an original mat and is probably a little finer in spatter size than yours.

They look brilliant in my opinion, even if they were a little heavy on the paint, it will dull with a bit of use and will look fantastic in the car.

I got the base of the rear seat refoamed bums don,t go through the springs anymore

got the screens put in last week fitter came back today poped them out and seeled them and put them back in again he wanted to do it this way to give the rubbers a chance to take thier shape


got the rear bar on slowly starting to look like an fc again

I got this insulation from melb dear as shit but bit the bullit and brought it

to any of you people building cars the times I,ve thought about givin up and walking away is amazing lucky I got a good wife who told me how much of my life I have put into this sometimes I didn,t touch it for months then you check ont other cars on the forum and get motivated again; its great to see the end of the tunnel,yea without the inspiration of this forum a lot of cars wouldn,t be built so thanks guys&girls nearly done
