Well the HQ has been put aside and work on the HZ is under way. Thought I would post a few photos of the start.

Looking good Wombat...have you decided what colour stripes you will be using. I got my DY3's ordered today. Parts list is shaping up nice now...most of the gear I need has been sourced...I will start the bodywork in the next couple of weeks...Cheers mate..keep it up!

Hey Kym, not decided on stripes yet. Still looking for some parts too. Know where there is a set of rims, (just need to save the beer money to get them from WA). I wanted to load some pictures of the chassis in the booth but must be too large. About to head to work tomorrow will have to wait two weeks before I do anything else. Make sure you put up some pictures of yours too.

Yea thanks guys. The plan is to remove the top skin, repair and patch the rust and crap job the last owner did. He thought you just cut a square out and all is good! Anyway do that couple other bits of rust and put it in primer.
I tip my hat off to guys like you Wombat just wish i could do metal and rust work
cant wait to see it in colour
keep up the good work bud
