im kinda a little dissapointed its not on immaculate origional BBS wheels or something like panasports to match the "origional feel".

still porn as hell though

I'm actually surprised how well the Gram lights suit it, I've never been a fan of the Titanium lips and most of the time they don't work but here they work amazingly well. Imo old school wheels wouldn't really work that well given this is more of a restomod build than a period correct build or full on stock restoration.

Wow, That came up amazing. What an awesome finish

with the paint. Such a great reward for the time & effort

put in.

Awesome work Robbie. :rolleyes:

Thanks Kyle, the paint makes the car, it's such a nice job, could not be happier :D Not finished yet but...

As I am sure you have noticed badges need to go on yet as well as a long list of little things to finished off.

It has all been worth it now that I get to look back on some of these photos :wub:

first time i have seen LED tail lights look like they need to be there on a 32

Same Glyn, they are special and at night OMFG!!

Cheers, I am very very happy with wheels for now, I think a second set will be needed at some point but

Couldn't have said it better myself Michael, thanks again for your input mate. :thumbsup:

I like how it has been done, tasteful and understated. No stupid wheel poke, and subtle exterior mods.

Ah cheers mate, my thoughts exactly. :thanks: again for your feedback.

The only thing I hate about this car is that I don't own it. You lived up to the name of the thread and even exceeded it, definitely a once in a life time

    • The second part yes, the first part about easy VE calculation is something I've seen a few people talk about online.
    • You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate
    • I initially was going to do the whole car with a block then realised, it would be a bigger monster of the job 😂 I guess that's all part of the learning process. I appreciate all that advice, I think I got a good idea on how to tackle this whole job.
    • I admire your efforts with the scuff pad.  As a mere mortal, I use this for the baulk of my sanding work- https://sydneytools.com.au/product/milwaukee-m18bos125-0-18v-li-ion-cordless-125mm-5-random-orbital-sander-skin-only Yes you can easily create a low spot while sanding. There are 2 types of filler, 1 part of 2 part. The 2 part filler will get used for large corrections and the 1 part filler will get used for pin holes and areas that only need slight filling.  Depending on how zealous you are with the sander (very easy to do with a power tool) or if you are chasing rust etc, yes those low spots will need to get filled or you will end up with a very obvious defects in the paint.  Using the guide coat and large sanding block, high and low areas will be revealed (watch youtube videos for a good visual on this). Its up to you if you think its worth the effort to make the car completely flat before you spray it (you make it flat by filling the low areas).  At the end of the day, it comes down to time. The end result comes from the level of prep put in to the car. If you want a perfect result, you have to put in the time during the prep stage or else it will be impossible to achieve a perfect result during the spraying process.
