    A little bit more done, headlight surrounds on and headlights in, coffin rack on, re chromed, and looking really smick against the dark green. The tailgate has the caprice sign, and the 5.0litre sign as that is what it had on it in its former glory. It was DL7 stripes so these look really good on the tailgate, inner guards in today.



    Steering column all painted and a new steering wheel on which will have a sandman HQ centre cap

    Hey Rod, Did you purposely put the RTS OR 5.0l badge in the wrong spot??

    I was wondering that also arg071, were they both ment to sit just below the ridge line in the tailgate? also on that 5.0L badge Jen, how did you get to the inside of the tailgate to get the lugs on? or did you just stick it on there?

    looking awesome by the way :D

    I know the tailgate badges don't line up, but the 5.0 badge only looks right above the line and the RTS badge is in the original position. There really is no other option (especially now the holes are there!).

    I personally would have left the RTS badge off, but what you've done looks like the way Holden would have done it.
