Alex ... not a complete rebuild , but a complete renovation ... interior stripped and will be refurbished in black and white with some chrome bling , engine bay stripped except motor ... twin carbs , extractors and PLENTY of chrome ... in the short term it will be "rat-rod " matt black in race trim ... GT stripe and all ... all new brakes , lines and hoses (boosted) ...all nuts , bolts , washers clips etc replaced with stainless ... lowered 2" all round (after rego) ... Deep dish chromies AND Cheviots ... More to come ...
GOA 350 ... and black and whit armrests ...if I can find some to re-trim !!!!
Dave .

Nice work on those carbs.... those old drag ways look in good nick... if you're interested in a brand new set of 13" Simmons wheels to suit ( old Skool Simmons style ) let me know, i've done some searching and ring around and looks like now i can source them...
