    I'm liking that. Is it a Holden?

    Who cares If It's glass or steel, It's still a hot rod.

    Work of art. How do you get the chassis sections to just go round corners so beautifully like that?
    I may live in East London, I may have a number plate that reads "Chopt",
    but I do NOT use 6" wheel spacers!

    What’s the best tips on bead rolling, yours always look super smooth and neat, no marks from the formers ect

    making out properly helps. if you havnt got straight pen lines you wont bead straight.

    also motor on the bead roller. you cant get the same results on a hand machine. you always get small marks left over but powder coat would cover them

    Hi there, NZer living in the UK here. I have a soft spot for Holdens as I cut my panelbeating teeth on them - a lot of HR/G/T/K/Q/Zs, a few earlier and later. I had an HG ute in Melbourne as well, and currently have a Holden assembled 66 Impala here.
    Any details on the 383?
