Sorry to steal the thread but surely somebody has drawn up a rotis properly, I am going to need one soon for my next project and the one I used on Frankenstein was borrowed from an FC friend so if anybody has one I can borrow in WA or a good set of drawings I can make one from I would appreciate ...

Hi guys,
I'm well into the rebuild of the ute.
I wish I had a TIG welder as the MIG and oxy are doing the job but for sheet metal way to much heat.
The copper heat sink is working as is the stitch method.

I will be following this topic with a view to purchase a TIG welder down the track, pending ...

Thanks for those pictures too Erroll

Haha- yes!

Thanks everyone.

I've finally gotten some time off with all the current goings-on and have had a chance to look over the project properly. I've decided on the next step being making up a rotisserie and removing diffs, front end and engine to get at the floors and crossmembers.

Any general hints and tips on the best ...

G'day Harv- did Andrew's race cars ever get back to you in regard to the rear bumper mould?

Reason I ask is No 1 I don't have a rear bumper at all and No 2 I'd like to start by fibreglassing something small.

Cheers

Cheers Harv- I will be down that way around Christmas time but I’ll see who’s got what here first.

Hi all,

I'm looking for an original inlet manifold and carby for my grey. It doesn't have to be show spec or anything as I only need it to get the car started to move it around as I work on it.

Cheers!

Mick.

Good tip. What is the front pan?

Great info Billy and Errol, thanks, there’s some crazy chemicals involved and associated dusts- I’ll be wearing my full face respirator and working outdoors for sure.

When the book arrives and I’ve read it and become an armchair expert I plan on taking a mould of a chromed front bumper section and ...

Not a hijack at all Nathan- I’m very keen to learn as much as I can about the process and have watched a few good aussie videos ( https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iOZkwrfpit8) and ordered the book considered the ‘bible’ on fibreglassing race car panels. I would like to add two moulds to what Harv ...

G'day Harv,

I had read one of your Meth Monster posts regarding the moulds you'd acquired and thought that was a great acquisition! :thumbsup:

The panels on Gabby Curry's car look very good for fibreglass copies, I find the separate panels always look better than the single front clip mould that ...

Haha! Yes I can just picture it now; one piece guards/bonnet, hinges behind the front bumper with painted on headlights... mmm

Thanks for the link

I had a bit of a look through but couldn’t find it Blacky. The coupe I’ve seen and it looks great.
