We're fixing my first car to drive down the same first road

Hammer/ dolly /Bondo continues. My bro does this stuff fast & well, I straggle along, steep learning curve. Bro tackled the B pillars/ LHR door (which was a oil-canned pig). These front fenders were pretty bumpy, I've been on them, finally have them where I want them. This one is splashed with water for a look.



Olil canned door. This door was coated in some pretty pitty rust. A better door is too many $$$, hope the inner supports will be OK.





Summer down under. Nice workplace.





Probably the worst gap on the car. Geoff's not happy with it, I dont mind. This an old 80's trunk floor repair.




We suspect hood flew back sometime in the past. The dent in front of the windscreen will need a pull, same other side.

 

Recent sightings. Group shot with my club, 48-FJ Club SA

 

Oops, forgot. This bad boy now shares space with my car. This thing needs a thread of it's own. Absolutely *****in early Holden, this thing.

 

Pic-nic lunch with the club (pencil)

 

Look again- different car. Lots of cool tricks on this one too.

 

These are concepts. I love the photo of the rear and that's how it should look. I've deleted the stainless trim that is riveted to the p***enger door window frames, and moved the licence plate down onto the bumper with a '56 FE Holden licence guard.
My bumpers are kinda ****ty. You can get mint new Chinese repops, and they look good, but man, ughh.. The green scallop is just playing around.

 

Wheels and hubcaps painted. All Stock. Didnt drop the tyres (hand-me-downs). Made a cardboard mask. Deflated the tyres, mask worked real well.
Hub caps are not polished yet.
New bias plys to suit are hideously expensive down- under.
