This has been a great project so far and future plans call for a sedan rear bumper, frenched aerial and sun visor. It will run an XA 250 and auto, Centura diff and front discs, low with steelies and white walls. Cool.
He has a long way to go yet, but here are a few shots of progress to date

I am pretty pleased with the way things are going, not just because his workmanship has improved. The other benefits l see are his commitment, as a single dad l knew where he was over the school holidays when l was at work. He is alway happy to show me the progress made during the day and ask for advice or help as the job proceeds. I figure that by the time he gets his licence he will have so much time and effort invested in this car that he will drive with that thought in the back of his mind, hopefully.
Here are a couple of other shots:

Cool project; don't see many of them getting around really. The occasional one driven by an old grandpa or the odd tough streeter sedan at a show, very unique.
Looks good, and plans sound pretty snazzy. Anyway, looks like he's doing a much better job than I am hahahahaha I better get back to work. What school is he at?

I know how it feels waiting for school to finish before getting into a car, and it's not easy. It's what keeps me going at school!
