Sweet, great progress, keep up the work. Is the Bluebird yours? Is it running? Check out the cruise coming your way in April, would be great if you could make it along.

Classicdat, Thanks man. Im keen on the southern cruise so my goal is to have it done by then. The bluebird was a minter, i sold it about 2 years ago tho, ya cant have them all ae :(

Garth, Haha im pretty happy with it. Still trying to get the front guards lookin ok and will need a new bonnet but overall its pretty solid. Its been a while, will have to catch up with ya sometime!

Maddat, Cheers mate, just had a look at yours, and it looks good, i see youve gone the creme too. Im going to paint mine myself, so will see how that goes haha.
