G`day Yogie , thats one of my projects , both pillars have been finished off , chassis kit is in , etc and the car has been bicarb blasted and primed.
I dont have the skills to reskin the doors and I cant find anyone who will do them without wanting a ridiculous amount of money . I was going to sell it but the wife wont let me ! This project has been ongoing for 6 or 7 years now , there was only one other that I knew of when I started it , now there is a few of them so I have lost a bit of interest in it.
One day I will finish it , just a matter of getting the rest of the panel work done.........

thanks for that Trev, I liked the look of this from the start. Looks very "factory". And listen to the wife dont sell it, it dont cost you nothing just sitting there...

How did you come up with the measurments and the amount of space you wanted to gain...anymore pics, I'd love to do this to a car. If you do have anymore pic, care to send them to yogie63@aapt.net.au Any way good stuff chap, I'd buy it off you no worries there at all.

I worked out how much to lengthen the doors by having a photo enlarged then chopping it up and moving it around until I thought it looked right - ended up with 200mm . I have some pics of it as it sits now somewhere , if I find them I will post them.
