Was Tuscany Yellow the original colour Adam?
Be great to see the Ute at the nationals.
Hope my Ute makes it as well. It hasn't been to a Nationals since Canberra in 2000.

I have only seen that colour on a Sedan. It's one of my favorites. Never owned an EK in that colour.
How long have you had the ute?

Ive owned the ute for nearly 3 years, its taken this long to get where it is today, brought as a simply take it hoem and spray it turned into a full strip down.... better for it though at least now i know everything has been done properly.
Steve i haven't seen any utes in this colour either would be interesting to find out numbers but i surpose its impossible

Well the carpet has just been laying in the ute for a while thought it was about time to trim it and put it in correctly.

Looks alot better in place with the stainless scuff plates

The effort that has gone into this project is unbelievable.
That ute looks absolutely incredible
I wish I had even half the talent that some of you guys possess. I can't even do an an oil change without screwing something up
