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

Thanks guys, your right Harko it does fill funny being behind the wheel again, the woodwork in the tray was also done by my mate Scott, he is a real master of everything. Looking forward to driving the ute to the meeting tomorrow night, first time for about 2yrs.   Cheers Al

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.....

Just noticed the rear plate is off centre - is there a reason for this? I am probably being too picky.....

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  Grin          Cheers Al
