Hopin to get rear wheel arches built this weekend - updates to follow!!!

sorry if pics bit big:D:D:D:D:D

[Flamin Black A]

pics are great keep them coming

[langysrodshop]

About time you put this up Matt, I told the old git age's ago he should post some progress pics. Looking good.

For those that don't know Garry this body looks much better in the first pic than it actually is, It closely resembled an old beat up teabag when he got it.


.

[Asbo]

yeah as langy said the body was shot! its comin together slowly now though - we are both home for 2 weeks at christmas so should crack right on with it - The ol man is on here as JUNKYARDGENIUS but he cant log in at the mo for some reason,


we are hopin to get both rear wheel arches sorted at the weekend - nothing like restoring a body before cutting it up hahaha

[langysrodshop]

Its Mr Langy to you cheeky whippersnapper LOL

All appears in order at this end, I have just checked. Has he forgotten his password or something?

Sometimes I think it might have been easier if I started with a tea bag.

[yellowboy]

Fenders would be very girly - and would ruin that rear view officer ..
