no no no... light pastel yellow with half panda satin black bumpers just been out trying to sort out charge issues. for some reason its only chargin at 11.7 volts, swapped to a spare alternator i had and same thing... and sortin out the headlight wiring. the headlight switch is U/S so the lights have been hardwired in as soon as the battery is connected they come on... minor things

any how eating easter eggs now soo all good

I could deliver the rear bar to you if i'm free when you are. Could take a look at the alternator wiring too while im there

[Dazzla86]

yeah tom i would like that man. come down an have a squiz. a beer will be waiting for you....



mate wanted to have a weld! so i said yeah you can weld down here for me while i snapped this picture. started late into the arvo round 3 an by 6 couldnt see as it was to dark an there was welds where there didnt need to be welds. did some practising on a old car bonnet and found a pretty forgiving setting with out blowing too many holes yet still giving good penetration an joining power. quite easy. weld a bit an tap the next bit flat with a hammer, weld a bit. Actually really fun!!!

You crazy bugger! So you are back from Japland? Rear qtr work looks like its going good, you spot welding it on on slugin that bad boy? I guess you'll want another pair of flares haha (im actually changing the design a lil but wont be cosmetic)

[Dazzla86]

crazy as a cut snake hsss! haha yeah man been back for months!! time to go again i reckon. yeah just tackin it, tis the only way to not blow a hole lol. probably 1000 tacks so far. arrr see your flairs are on the roof my son along with a cool beverage and a pair of sunglasses. i have a plan..........................................

tom came round today and we fluffed around tryin to make a good alternator from 2, but it seems the voltage reg is fuubar. so i threw it in the local park for the street kids to play with

i dont get it

[Dazzla86]

had a small sucess. came up perfect, spent about 5 hours bogging and sanding it all. the vertical join only needed the lightest smear of bog then sanded it all flat, primer filled it and sanded smooth again an gave it a quick seal coat with white topcoat. good enough to waterproof it for now.



progress is slow because i work 2 weeks away 1 week home, so i get more time to think about it than work on it haha

Good work mate.
