ok this is how it started out life, it was sitting in the back shed of a wreckers yard, (thanks duj) it is a 93 low km car just the body was faded roof ripped and needed a general tidy up, here is the before pics and the level i have gone to, to make sure it goes to a good home and the paint lasts, i was going to keep the car when i started the build but ive found another project car that i am getting a s roller and i want to do a full strip down build up, any way this is it so far

i stripped the whole car back to metal removed the rear boot lid spoiler and brake light looks alot smoother, im dreading puting it back together because it took for ever to strip it lol oh well atleast its done rite.

its now in polyester, so dry rub over the weekend and prime then wet rub and paint, wont be long now :)

Rota,
Have you sorted the fuel problem yet?
Greg.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I saw an Orange NA with white rims yesterday and it looked good. We are talking a flat pastel orange (sunburst yellow style), not Holden tiger mica.

Blue and Red wire sounds like the signal wire coming from the air flow meter to the fuel pump. Basically, if there is no air flow throught the meter, it shuts down the fuel pump.

So do we get to find out what the colour will be before it's painted?
