Hey guys, thought I would put up a few pics of my coupe. Just started getting stuck into now my man cave is built. Has been sitting neglected for a few years. Plans are to keep it mild a series with quads.

New man cave

Love the quarter panel and how straight it came out. Nice workshop too.

As for the 520; the wagon is plenty rare. It should have a J13 motor in it if I remember right.

If you dont mind me asking what do you grind your welds back with? what kind of disc?

looks very smooth.

Thanks!

Thanks guys, Yeah Its got the j13 still mate and the column shift. I always use a 120 grit flap disc on body welds mate, then just clean it up with a blue "strip it disc". Solid discs make a bit of a mess.
