At last the part I was told I would never get.

Need a spare wheel door lock now. I can't fit the spare in the door though!

Thanks Hewey, it's got a way to go yet. your ute is too cool. I think the colour and it's stance really gives it attitude.

What colour is that paint Tim ????????
We are just doing up our original EK Wagon and your colour looks very similar to what the missus has picked out!
The rim/tyre combination's the same too!
Nice job mate, looks stunning.

Hi Doc Bob
The colour is "hot House Green".
Holden Monaro colour. I couldn't stand fitting new crome on a car that had a paint colour that looks
like under coat. Hope to have it out and about soon. It looks better in the sun. I'd love to have
done a wagon in the same colour.
Tim

Looks great Tim,
Bit effort gone into that rebuild, very straight indeed, and rust free. Awesome

Cheers Tim.....
A bit hard to tell the color with photo's!
The missus has picked out the new Commonwhore color "Poison Ivy" for the main body and our Panel beater/Painter reckons a Nissan Metallic cream with pearl for the roof and rims.
Should look different!
How did you go finding the badges for your ute?????
We need a coupple for the wagon, but are unsure where to start looking
keep up the good work.........Bob.
