Hey daryl, Have you tryed pt wakefield wreckers for a heater tap?
When i was out there last checking out a 2dr LJ it was like walking back in time, LATE 60-70'S Holdens and fords lined up and alot in salvagable condition.
surely they'd have something out there thats still in good nic or to fiddle with.

Just a suggestion

yeah lots of work involved prepairing for paint unless you have done it you dont relise how much is involved but great to see your having a crack at the warwick yellow one are you going acrylic or 2pac i think acrylic is more user friendly but not many people like it anymore

yeah acrylic,

most don,t use acrylic anymore because of the time to bring up the finish,i have the time.

i use 2k in engine bay and boot under side and mechanicals,as no buffing is needed,shiny of gun.
