Beautiful weather down here today, the time for panelwork has come again.
I think we should be getting some progress pics soon.


I think you're right Doogs. He was here today migging up holes in a guard.


Yeah thats why I made the post. Mello, it was more an observation that we would be seeing
some pics soon (after having a chat to Heath yesterday), rather than having a stab.
I am in no position to tell him to paint his car lol, cos mine is still not done!

Ohh btw here are a few photos

Along with working on the Torana, I've been dealing with a severe Jap-crap infestation on my property:

And been developing a pod filter induction setup on this unit:

And modifying my replacement front guard to fit around my fat tyres without scrubbing

It's a requirement of the cult he belongs to Em.
He's not really lipping that guard either.
He's summoning the "Great Torana Spirit" on his tom-tom.

With the weather as its been the last few days, you must be almost at the painting stage! These 21 Degree days are absolutely PERFECT for painting... Not sure what the humidity has been like though.

Yeah well I walked inside for a drink and the wind came up massively, one of my guards was sitting a bit precariously so I went "ooooo shit better go and catch that" before i got out the back it had fallen off what it was sitting on and fallen into the other guard, scratching the shit out of both. I think I just lost all my motivation

Squirted some on but not enough yet and it hasn't all worked out, got some crows feet and shit :(
Hopefully I can sort that out tomorrow before the rain comes back on Friday!

Had some spare gloss black so I gave these a squirt too. Came up nicely :)
