Is that a hint of lace I see, ooh la la!

Seeing as some asked here are some pics. Still got the rear seat to go in and reco the booster but near enough to done! Enjoy...... I know I will! For those that don't know what it is, it's a 61 EK Holden.

Cheap and nasty seat covers till some cash allows retrim (thanks Peddro)


Nothing too flash here


Mmmmmm Candy, and a subtle bit of lace..ooh la la


Some stripes and she's done


Well maybe a grille too


Big thanks to Cragar for doing the roof and helping me cut and buff it.
I'll get some good shots this coming weekend at the Kustom Nats.

 

Mmmmmm candy. I don't know if I'll make it up to the Nats next week, I might. I haven't seen any of you guys in a while. Life keeps getting in the way of car stuff.

 

I suppose I could be cliche and say the wheel is on the wrong side... but I'll spare us and just compliment on the lace. Looks great!! slim

 

Seeing as I asked to see it, I gotta say that its looking cool.

Can't wait to see it in person, don't know if I'm going to the Kustom Nats.

As Tysond said..... life keeps getting in the way of car stuff...Dammit..

Binga

 

very nice! well done.

 

looking bitchen. is that some kind of ford or something. too many beers in me right now, cant think straight. looks real good. didnt even notice the steering wheel was on the wrong side...

 

Your Holden has lots of 1950's GM family styling cues. Nice work so far. What engine does/will it have.

Benzine440 she's running an inline six and auto, nohing flash this sucker is my new daily driver..

BTW thanks for the complements guys.

 

Looks great, Devilrod. Look after that candy, especially since you're driving it every day.

 

Nice work. That looks great. Looks like you guys are really enjoying your summer. When and where's the Nats? I MAY end up in Melbourne in the coming weeks for Holden work. I hate the trip but love Australia.

 

nice job.. I have always been a sucker for a nice lace job

 

5,6,7 of January... So you will probably miss it. Are you going to be going to Fishermans Bend or Lang Lang prooving grounds. Either way there is plenty of stuff on and quite a few car nuts working at Holden. I have a mate at Lang Lang.

 

Very nice red...what did you use? I'm diggin on the lacey dash.

dat's purdy.

 

The Candy red we used is a locally produced brand, Spray Chief. Cragar swears buy it as its designed for the Aussie conditions...
