Is that a custom yellow you have used and are you planning on badging it again??? Cheers Ben Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: hawk on October 07, 2007, 08:05:59 PM Well done Al ,I can't wait to see it in the flesh cheers,Greg. ;)
Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: Al on October 07, 2007, 08:39:45 PM Ben the dash and the engine day is just Buttercup Yellow a GMH color, the rest of the ute is 3 Ltrs Buttercup and 1 Ltre of white I just wanted to tone the body color down plus I wanted something a bit different. I,m not going to rebadge it. To be honest I forgot to send the tailgate badge and the front guard speers away to get rechromed. Greg I,m hopeing to go to the club meeting this tuesday with the ute. Cheers Al

Congratulations on a job well done and well worth the wait. Cheers, Gary Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: GM on October 27, 2007, 08:11:05 AM Reminds me of my old ute. Looks great in yellow.
Cheers Glenn Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: Paul In Ireland on October 28, 2007, 07:13:35 AM Nice looking ute alright - that tone of yellow is just about right.
BTW - if you don't want the rear badge or the guard spears, I'm looking for some..... Paul. Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: Paul In Ireland on October 28, 2007, 12:26:52 PM Just noticed the rear plate is off centre - is there a reason for this? I am probably being too picky.....
Title: Re: Al's Ute Post by: Al on October 28, 2007, 11:55:24 PM Paul, Because the spare wheel locke is in the centre of the door, they had to put the number plate light to one side. It is a bit off puting isn,t it..... There,s no reason why you can,t put no. plate in centre thou, but right hand side of plate would be more brighter. I put the plate there for 1. in centre for light. 2. to annoy people following me ;D Cheers Al
