what a waste! FINISH IT!

no, so sad after all that work. dont sell it or if you do, keep all the good bits for the red one. I know where revhead lives, im sure you wont mind if we borrow it

ps i love that first photo, not often you see a volcano billowing smoke and ash let alone with a 1000 in the same shot

Right well I'm out in a few weeks so I'm going to attempt to finish. Being realistic, I ought to be able to get the thing as a complete rolling car. Got engine troubles again. So now working on the original A10 - turbo charging keeps popping into mind.

Soldier on.

Here are some other items I have gathered over the last few months.

Deluxe Shields:




Sports Wheel sanded & varnished:





Halogen eyes, thanks to boofhead!





Door worked primed almost ready, perhaps 3 more sprays and rub-downs.




Boot lid ready for final coat. One more rub with 600 wet and it'll be ready.





Bonnet finally fixed after sooo many attempts.






I'm trying to get it done. So annoyed with early departure. I've missed out on about forty days of work in the mines (and they aren't too happy about it either). Anyway, hope to get it finished.

1000coupe, I am Papua New Guninean I am already at home.

chris are you going to stay in PNG or eventually move over here to aus?
i want that wheel!
are you going to keep blasting bonnets or just stick to the paint stripper??

Nah, I'll do all my study in Aus and return here to open a business. I like Aus but only in small doses, the first world is a little bit too fancy at times (well in the city it is).

Anyway, here is the H145 diff (which will house a H150 centre). It was sand-blasted and primed in intergard 269.

If anyone wants Paint spec sheets let me know I've got everything from International Paints.










I'll paint these tonight.

Chris

so glad to hear your able to finish it! can't wait for the day to see a photo of it finished. i think i might wet myself that same day!!

Ahh 1000Deluxe, if only you were a woman, I'd be even more proud of my efforts.......

Going well Chris, exceptional attention to detail!

That thing has to be finished... bring it back too, isn't it relatively cheap to get it back here?

Cheers.

This will be stored or sold.

Shipping would be about 2K to Adelaide......Too much really.

Check out the 67 B10 that I got Sean. THAT will definitely be in Adelaide, cheers to Revhead for looking after her whilst she boards in Melbourne.

I've already had to clean my desk after drooling over that new purchase, very nice.

2k is pretty expensive, I thought it was a lot cheaper than that, keep up the good work!
