58 panel Melbourne
G'day all!
Just started work on my 58 panel - when i get some time i will throw some pics up. Was in terrible shape when i got her but am determined to get her back to health. Going with some drivability mods so as to keep up on the freeways etc.
Looking at a Red9 front end and a CB Performance engine upgrade. (Sorry purists ) up in the air for colour schemes etc so am getting some renderings done and might run a poll on here for some advice.
Cheers,

Mate,
Just push out the dents , weld up the rust and roll it. It would be a shame to paint over that.

Re: 58 panel Melbourne
its had someone do that already - the doors are dead, and the body held together with bugle screws.
this will be brought back to its former glory.
