sammo[RL] Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Posted July 13, 2009 Crappy canberra weather! Been bit slow, working on other side now. Most holes/dents have been bogged/repaired, and slowly getting ready for rest of the car to be primed! Quote
seabiscuit Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 Have you got an ETA for rego? Looks like it's coming along nicely. It's fantastic to have a rust-free car :dance: Quote

sammo[RL] Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Posted September 17, 2009 New carpet ordered, cleaned up under dash. Cleaned 40 years of crap out of the heater box! Yuck! Took the smashed dash top off and covered it with sub box carpet. looks 100 times better! Getting closer to putting stuff back, every day! Quote
sammo[RL] Posted September 26, 2009 Author Report Posted September 26, 2009 New black carpet arrived during the week, and new rubbers are on the way! Progress has been slow, weather has been bad for doing 'car stuff' Quote

seabiscuit Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 that looks great! who did the paintwork? :) What I wanna know is why wasn't I invited?! :y: Na, it's looking great, Sammo. Good to see you're doing the job well. Quote
sammo[RL] Posted October 17, 2009 Author Report Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) Well the new rubbers arrived yesterday, and already the door rubbers are in, and the boot rubber is next! Also took a trip to clarke rubber, for some new bailey channel-my new non-favourite job! All these sudden bursts of doing stuff has made me tired..... BTW, full credit to Lilavadee on ebay! Rubbers are first class! Edited October 18, 2009 by sammo Quote
