Yew looks sweet!

Put the car in for a wheel alignment this morning, pick it up after work, so hopefully no more scrub/clunk

Edit; I've seen it bourbs

Some low life decided to break the passenger mirror off my car!!!! Seriously how sad do you have to be to do pointless damage to someone's car?????

Wreckers are the cheapest option to get it fixed?, The glass, silver part, and presumably the motor are all fine....

I have a spare mirror if you need it. I bought a pair coz some low life smashed a shopping trolley into my drivers one, It is black but its easy to remove the plastic cover.
I'm happy to post it too.

mynameisdaniel · 11-12-2010, 10:54 AM

Thanks Phil, i'd be happy to take it off your hands

Can you PM me what you're after for it?
Cheers.

chewyryce · 11-12-2010, 07:35 PM

after 2 weeks i've finally finished fixing the front quarter of my BG... did what the stupid panel beater didnt do.. a proper job. i did the best i could and im happy with it.. now i can drive it again after 3 weeks being off the road. i swear, some people are just lazy

mynameisdaniel · 13-12-2010, 01:09 AM

After almost 5 years the Monaro is finished! Been a project car for Dad and I, restoring it back to original condition. Got it started pretty easily (after buying a new battery) been 3 years since the motor was last started :O

It's come out incredible

Rupewrecht · 13-12-2010, 09:20 AM

Looks great. Cool color combo, too.

RustyKaos · 13-12-2010, 10:50 AM

Very nice job. Am liking the colour. Any pics of the engine bay?

mynameisdaniel · 13-12-2010, 01:14 PM

Thanks, original colours :P don't see anything like it these days

Only a small 253 but it's original so it's staying

marcs_sp20 · 13-12-2010, 01:17 PM

Bloody clean!

And its a lot better to not stuff around with numbers and such on these cars, as they surely do go for more being super Original!

props to you & your dad for one super clean example of Australias best looking original supercars

phildough · 13-12-2010, 02:54 PM

Thats one beautiful beast.
Im glad to hear that you have kept it original.
Congrats to you and your Dad.

Brisbane_boy · 13-12-2010, 04:18 PM

i bet there was ALOT of work in that.
Came out very well. congratulation.
Have you got any pics with what you started with?

mynameisdaniel · 13-12-2010, 05:35 PM

Yep a LOT of work pretty much covers it :P lol

It was quite a nice example when we first got it, straight body, not too much rust, paint had been hammered with stone chips and the stripes had almost been polished through

Didn't stop us stripping it back to bare metal, getting the entire interior reupholstered and taking almost everything else apart, cleaning, repainting as needed.
