well at Mr bottomleys request, ,,,, im gonna put up some pics of my current project.
For some background, its a 1970 HB GT
Last owner before me had it for 18+ years and during this time it had unfortunately became an 80's "custom victim"
Dont get me wrong , the mods were pretty good standard ,,but why !lol
I bought the car on 30th of December 2009 (MY xmas present to me!)
Needed a lot of panel work as it had been sand blasted before and had more than a few ripples to smooth out, panels were either new or really good so not much tinworm to deal with at all though back panel had been modified and needed replaced,but in general a solid car.but had sitting been off the road for over 2 years.
Its been 2 grand and 5 months of weekends , but i think its been worth it
Its never gonna be concours,and its never gonna be a show stopper (yet) as I just cant find the parts i need just now, but maybe for next year
Car already has loads of really neat 'trick' bits and really nice mods ,a lot of which i still dont know exactly what / how he's done it ,
A few Ive kept, a few ive enhanced, any one who knows me knows what im like!
Anyway, heres some before and afters up till now.;
