Thanks for the Pics Matty, but I'm going to have to dissapoint you. That flamed Tudor does nothing for me. As for the Rivi, now thats a different storey!!! 8) Some candy and flake voila! And the pale blue bobber is awesome too.

good pics matty, the ruff looking EH ute is realy a very very good body it has an injected 5 litre in it, it had the conversion done by the guy that helped with mine, i think in the pics of mine getting done it is there somewhere in the background, only thing i don't like about it is the different colour panels, if it had the same green panels with patina would be much better
