Hi Tim welcome and thanks for not stalking anymore
Sounds like you have some great projects on the go so good luck with them... also a few music fans on here as well so you're in great company.
Gday tim. How many friend requests have you gotten since posting up that you're a panelbeater/spraypainter?
I think I remember seeing your Cobra on ebay. I take it you're the guy that painted Simo's red Valiant Custom tribute van? Nice stuff on both of those. You should become the most popular person on MySandman with those kind of skills.
hey playwme ..... yeah, I painted Simon's Val.... and yes, you may well have seen my xc cobra van on ebay..... I have the feeling that maybe you're a photographer?
Nope, just a hoarder (to quote others). I've got a couple of Valiants (VG Hardtop and VF ute) so I hang around Hemi6pack.com a bit and followed a lot of Simons build. Not only does the man know how to build a van but he's bloody good at putting the process into words and pictures for the rest of us to follow the journey.
