Hi all

just thought that you might all like to know, I have just placed another order for more pinchweld. Posted Image

The colours that I have ordered are;
Black: Suits HJ-HX and LC-UC
Tan: Suits HJ-HX and LX-UC
Buckskin: Suits HX-HZ and UC
Gold: Suits LC-LJ

I hope to recieve these in the next month or so.

In the future, I will be looking at getting;
Sienna,
Light Blue,
Sage Green,
Jade, and
Sandalwood.

There are others that we would be happy to look at, we just need a small amount of old pinchweld to colour sample. So if you can thinkof any, let me know!

cheers
Mick

Is it going to be the right texture eg Roebuck texture for the LC and early LJs

Hi Dave

see the picture below that shows the three different grains of pinchweld that were used in the Toranas.

Over the past few weeks I have looked at many Toranas, etc to see exactly what pinchweld is in what car. I was fortunate to spend a couple of hours at Classic Oz Wreck (thanks Greg :spoton:) where I went through the cars and grabbed samples and cataloued the trim codes for the samples. At this stage I have some 12 different sample from HB - UC.

In the picture, from top to bottom, the grains, and what they suit are as follows;
Type 1: HB Torana and HK-T-G. Interestingly I found the a couple of HG's with the Type 2 pinchweld..
Type 2: LC-UC Torana and HJ-HZ. This is the one that we are currently doing.
Type 3: UC Torana and HZ & VB. There was no real deliniation as to when they started using this grain in UC and HX cars. I came across late production cars with the Type 2 in as well..

I can assure you that the black pinchweld in the LC/LJ XU1's is the same "black" as the LH-LX, etc. There was no change in the shade of "Black"

I hope that answers your questions..

with regards to a grey, I may do that in the future and if there is enough call from motor trimmers, etc I will look at other "non standard" colours.
I have been approached about doing white, of all things..

cheers

I have seen HTs that have type two pinchweld as well. It's great that someone is now doing the correct grains and colours. Well done.

Hi Graham

that is suited to Sandlewood Interior cars, LC/LJ.

It is for the Rear Doors, however you could probably measure it to see if it might suit a two door.

Would like to get a look so I can match the colour..

cheers
Mick

Hi guys

Troy, send me an email. See below

Steve
with regards to the black, I should recieve the samples for the Black (Tan and Antique Gold) sometime late this week.


If all is good, I expect I will have it in stock in about 5 - 6 weeks.

cheers
Mick
