Thread: Update

Well some time after starting, this is current progress on 77 2 door. All external body panels are up at Trev's paint in Rene St. Interior trim has been re done by Con at local upholstery place, including a good headliner. Have all engine bits, plus had heads/bottom end reco'd. Just screwing that together now. 9.75:1, Crower 50230, good heads, edelbrock manifold/carb, Petronix dizzy etc. Photos are: Red car was original, engine/gearbox and most accessories coming from that. Using the LT95 plus my old Brown Davis 130L tank (still in great condition). But, after 30 years on coast, Fraser Island/Double island point, cancer too much. Photos are of red car once stripped, going to the knackers yard. The white car has good chassis etc. So that is build car. Bullbar was test of color, was thinking the Commodore SV6 yellow, black interior, etc, should look good. I want solid color. Plan now is to finish engine (rather than having bits everywhere ) Do strip of white car, then it goes to Trev. Hope around July for that. Body off, chassis strip, and off for either paint or powdercoat. I have a heap of Britparts (sills etc) to give to Trev for him to have fun with. Final build will use Dakota digital instruments and probably Vintage Air for A/C etc. So maybe in another 18 months/2 years, more photos

Porsche midnight blue is a color i really like as well
