NES i love the build up and the progress you have made so far.

Colours look great and i cant wait to see the finished product with the rest of the chrome and a full detail 8)

Can i ask where did you get the roof lining as im chasing some to redo my FC but having trouble tracking down what i need for the interior?

GMB, PM sent

I had the Front and back windscreens installed on the weekend and I'm really happy with them


The hoodlining also went in (before windscreens), still needs the windlacingaround the edges

I also put the grill in the dash and the switches in the cluster surround. Looks closer to completion.

Progress has slowed with the start of a new job. Somehow found the time to install sunvisor and mirror.


Hiding the wiring too. This is the headlight/ indicator wires running under the guard.


The voltage regulator and other various wiring will be mounted up under dash

Scored some moulded carpet and threw it in. Its not fitted or trimmed up but looks good. I'm still missing the seat surrounds which is annoying. The misses reckons it looks like a limo now.

Well its been a while, Flat out at work.
I had time recently to finish installing the trim down the side of the car properly so I can insert the interior door cards. Also trimmed vynil for the interior wheel arches

I also installed the maroon windlace and it seems to finish the edges off well

This is what it looks like around the scuff plates

Hmmm, FE on the inside and almost all FC on the outside.
Cars looking great.
How about a pic of the engine bay so we can see what it's like without the wiring.

SHHHHH, No one else noticed. I liked the colour of the FE interior (and Stinkie already had it half made up and for sale) which helped make the D.
And TAYZ, Yeah real low. No body roll in this ol girl. Suspension a little hard though. Drove it on the weekend and went pretty well. No smoke which is good.
HAD HEAPS OF BEEPS!
You'll probably notice the little stock pea shooter exhaust too. I tried to keep her quiet but you can't mistake a Holden Six
The engine bay is neat but the paint ended up a little messy so I am going to repaint the bay so No photo till then. Can't have it looking bad....

Now that I've got the beige with the grey, I'm looking for the cream, the bone, the ivory and the off white

Unfortunatly I think I'll just have another list of things to do, Like turn all the handles around. They open downwards, when I lean on em the door opens so I dare say thats one thing.

The carpet is stock plush pile dark red from rares, the windlace however is maroon (I had three attempts with rares to get the right colour)

Finally got the ol girl registered! It has been sitting in a garage for the last 6 months not doing anything and took forever to get her going. She proudly has QLD plates on her but is living in East Victoria with me. Unfortunatly I have not been on the forum often lately but it looks like its still going strong. Well done.
