Oh I know this time last year I was enjoying that kinda heat in ur country but this year it's just frost fog and rain. Nice and cold

 

Des.Just finished the thread.Great build.Was hoping that you would keep the flattie in the 50.However,the nail head WILL give you a bit more poke under the bonnet.Congrats on the award.May you recieve many more.Did`nt think that I would like the rear fender peaks,BUT they look great.Nice job.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Ha ha thanks mate, yeah the flatty is good but I want a bit mor go aswell. Customs that can rip a skid or put the boot into it on the highway and really rip off are cool. At least it's more of a period conversion that a brand new small block Chevy.

 

Killin it on the streets of Sydney

 

Sick, and love the double Go-Pro action !!

 

Ha ha ha double go pro should look cool when they use the footage cause there is a chopped spinner in front and behind me. Can't wait to see it
Des

 

Those go-pros are not traditional... you're fired

 

Ha ha ha neither are bags but. Lol fair call I'd better move this thread to a less traditional forum seeing as I'm running the dual go pro roof ha ha ha

 

Haha yeah.... bags are for wimps!

 

I know ive been told tere for groceries and accordions lil. I saw ur car on the classifieds i think or somewhere on here it's fairly
Fcking laid out ha ha looks awesome.

Anymore on this project? Wanted to see how the rear wheel tubs went back in and how everything came out, or did I miss that page? I am getting ready to try it for myself and there is a lot of great info in here. Please keep going...... And keep the pictures coming.


In another note..... Why the solid bar all the way across for the lower links on the rear end? Why not just have mounts off the inside of the frame? Asking because I don't know.


So many projects..so little time

 

Yeah... you finished that POS yet, Des?

 

I guess id better start posting pics again, I really enjoy this.
I'll see what I can do as the progress is moving forward slowly but still forward.
I'll post some today and tonight
