correction I saw that car again today and its a mitsubishi not a hoondy,I should check back over your posts but Im too lazy

[Rusty EK]

Harko, is actually a F o r d colour , dont tell anyone , shhh , the base is actually a red colour , the gold pearl over the top , makes it go that orange colour , or any shade between red , gold orange , the more sun you have on it ,you can see through the pearl and get the red base coming through , is very translucent in the sun , totally different colour whether it is in the sun or in the shed .

Have seen the colour you are talking about , after i painted the car , would of been so much easier to paint it something like that , would never do another car with pearl over the top , its like painting the damn thing an extra couple of times all the extra work , but in the sun its looks good .

Stewart , am starting to relise that

I have never been very good at finishing things off either , all the little fiddly stuff gives me the poop , built a boat as a project before the ute ,house, shed all the fidily bits not finished

[Rusty EK]

Got all the big panels on , needs a bit more polishing in a few spots , ran out of time

Well thats all for a couple of months , all the legal stuff for my house sale is done and finalised ,so it is time to start packing , oh the joy

Going to miss my big shed

[Rusty EK]

G,day Shane

Settled into the house , but the sheds are a mess , luckily had good weather to move in , but has been pretty ordinary since we have been here .

will have the yard sorted this week and then its on to sorting the shed that the ute is in , so I can get back onto it

How you going up there ??

[stillute-ed]

good thanks rusty lost a few tree's with the wind .ute's still in its shed .

[Rusty EK]

Well got the new house sort of sorted out and now it is time to get back into this damn ute .

Have had a few nights on it this week ,and a couple of days , cleaning bits up and putting them back on , pulled the grille to pieces and gave it a polish , got all the lights front and back working, except for the tail lights , must be a problem with the head light switch , will have to pull it out again , and see what is going on .

Starting to run out of wires , so must be winning

Treated the old girl to a carb of her very own as well , as I have had a borrowed one on it .
Holley 570 Street Avenger


Front bits all back on .



Wasnt happy where I made the back bumper fit , so have been hacking into that to get it to sit higher up , ready to be dechromed , panel beated and the FC plate surround welded on , and then rechromed .
