21-BJF Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Posted December 22, 2010 ok as some of you may know i ran into a small spot of bother a few weeks back in the form of a traffic accident, i was devostated to find out that they were planing on writting the car off. After asking a few questions it turned out this was only because parts could not be found. i then pulled the car our of that shop and had it towed to Oz Rods at meadowbrook. I went down on Saturday morning before work for a look at it and can not believe it was the same car i took in. 100% straight. The only thing i told them was under no circumstances did i want the car cut up. good news is i will have it back and on the road friday morning. sooo happy and can not speak highly enough of the work that graham and the boys have done. stay tuned for more updates.

HIGH ROLLER Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 Bad news! hope you're still in one piece tho... haha the rolla lives to die another day (hopefully of old age next time). Quote
cuzzo Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 Wow i am amazed! Looks like these old girls can't get us down ;) I can't believe this was fixed!!!! Do you have the details of the company you used? I guess they are in QLD huh? Quote
21-BJF Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Posted December 22, 2010 whole car is being repainted today buffed and new stickers tomorrow and then rear bumper which has been re-chrommed back on and pick up on friday. can't wait. Oz Rods & Restorations (07) 3805 7155 60/ 62 Nestor Drv Meadowbrook QLD 4131 the specialize in ground up builds on hot rods. so its funny seeing my 20 in a shed full of old chevy's and hot rods. They also bought a complete car to get a boot lid as that was the only part on mine that was to gone to fix. and i scored it as well so will have a few more overrated bumpers and other parts if anyone is looking . . . . .

LXY-642 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 Looking good mate. Did the cage take any damage in the crash? I imagine you couldn't be happier that it is now getting fixed instead of written off. Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 What a save!! that's an awesome repair job. I bet you can't wait to be back in the drivers seat... +rep for the panel shop :) Quote
Trev Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 Good stuff, glad you decided to hold onto it. Quote
21-BJF Posted January 20, 2011 Author Report Posted January 20, 2011 funny you should say that trev, i have been approached with a business opportunity and need to free up some cash to get it off the ground. So i have actually decided to sell it as it turns out that I'm pretty shit at pimping myself out on the street... if you know of anyone that might be interested, drop me a line. Quote
