Cheers Rusty Title: Re: BLOWN FC HAS A FACE Post by: DagsFC on February 10, 2006, 09:14:58 AM Yeah I'm with Rusty,
love the colours and It looks great now you are starting to get the chrome work back on. Can't wait to see it when its finished.:) Title: Re: BLOWN FC HAS A FACE Post by: Blown_FC on February 10, 2006, 09:57:33 AM Thanks Guys, and Thanks Torque for posting the pics ( I'm getting lessons now on how to do it myself ).
The grille hasn't fitted in as perfectly as I would have liked, but it's in, and unless I pointed out the fact, you wouldn;t really notice anyway. It's called "Character" My theory is changing a bit too on how the build is based. I was going to go NEW windows all round and New this and New that.....but the more I thought about it, the more I felt at home with 50 year old stuff. To me, I think there is something to be said for having windows that are 50 years old, and chrome work that is 50 years old. And like me ( when I get to fifty ), I'm going to have the odd wrinkle...that's what gives a car character. So I've stuck with my original windows, and the chrome is not 100%...but it's bloody nice to look at ! Thanks for the kind remarks guys.....I'll post some more pics when I finally get some decent wheels !

with respect to new windows... I think they are a worthwhile expense as the new glass will compliment the paint. anyway it's looking good. nice shade of blue.
