Looking forward to seeing this in the flesh Tim. FB 215 is the only black original interior I recall seeing and was a long time ago. I don’t recall if it had the silver.

I'm guessing that all Holdens with black body colour had silver dash, door interior, door jambs, and B-pillars.
Evidence: black 48-215 with red interior trim and Dalmorton Grey interior paint; black FC-215 with red interior trim and by now very faded silver interior paint.

I like the way your shed downpipe is giving your neighbour some fresh water. Regards Daz.

Shock, horror! It’s those pesky double skins they weren’t primed and sealed inside were they.

Yeah. Splashing a bit of colour on is a great tonic. Will be interested to see this black one.

After years of development with 10 units built around me and my stormwater blocked off it's the least I can do

Stormwater discharge is clearly outlined in the Brisbane City Council Development Act 1993 rev 1 (2013). Section 8.3 of the act states “The responsibility for the discharge point for stormwater rests solely with the party undertaking...”
Yeah ok, I stopped listening too...
Should look great with colour. In my opinion, full factory black cars of any model look very classy. From what I’ve heard though, a bugger to keep clean.
All these people trying to get cars painted/assembled for the Nats. All I’ve got to do is unstick the brakes and I’m trying to figure out if I’ve got time...
cheers Andrew

Black is awesome. Can't wait to see it buffed and out in the sun.
Reminds me of the old Athlete's Foot ad:
"Have you got them any blacker?"
Cheers,
