Wow looks like you panel/paint guy has a bit of work ahead of him.

 

Mandarin Red, thats a nice colour if i may say so myself (a little bias as well).

 

What other plans do you have for it, are you going to leave it stock or fit a body kit, what wheels are you going for, etc.

How bout some lacquer over the top and some nice wheels? :-) put it back together and watch yr car get more interest at a show then a concourse slr parked next to it!

On a serious note car looks straight and honest will watch with interest.

Cheers,

Looks like a great starting point. What are the wheels from? Early commodore or late UC?
