D-banger Posted 9October, 2011 Report Share Posted 9October, 2011 Went back to have a look at your original pics...and yep the colour of the mirror looks like a very fresh version of that original colour. I have picked up a few stone chips in the mirrors of my 3.2 and would love to have them back in the condition of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vas930 Posted 21October, 2011 Report Share Posted 21October, 2011 WOW! That thing looks awesome, Jim. Well done, mate. Have you got it home yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRK911 Posted 21October, 2011 Author Report Share Posted 21October, 2011 Thanks mate, Not home yet. Panel beater wants the paint to settle before he buffs it. Looks like I will be putting it back together next weekend. Works out well because of the cup, I can put some solid days into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRK911 Posted 26October, 2011 Author Report Share Posted 26October, 2011 Look who's back!!!!!! After exactly 3 months, I finally have my car back. We managed to put quite a bit together in 3 hours tonight, and should have the rest finished tomorrow night (all except for the roof lining and windscreens) And Vas, I took it for a quick squirt. Let me tell you, that exhaust is actually getting louder. hahahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRK911 Posted 1November, 2011 Author Report Share Posted 1November, 2011 Hey everyone. With a lot of help from my brother the car is just about complete. I haven't had a chance to take some proper photo's, but here are a few quick snaps that I took tonight in the garage on the phone. I have decided not to put the rear wiper on the car. What do you guys think? Does anyone know if I can buy a cap to cover the hole? Enjoy the low res shots. I will put some better ones up soon.

GRK911 Posted 2November, 2011 Author Report Share Posted 2November, 2011 Thanks for the kind words Vas. It's not quite as good as yours, but I'm trying hard. I'm actually driving my car on Friday around town, so buzz me if you're around. And Chris, thanks also for the nice words. Can't wait for the next cruise.
