61' panel

Post by kathawkephotos »

Hi All,

I'm Kat & I'm from Sydney's northern beaches :)
Recently I acquired a 61' Panel which I am restoring for a business venture.

I apologise if i seem vague throughout the resto, however I am keeping details/ specifics close to my chest for a number of reasons (nothing dodgy I swear haha).
I will start a build thread soon, once things settle down and I load some pics onto the computer :)
Anywho, just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself!

Yeah, C'mon Kat! You're a photographer....... :D


I'm the guy that was in front of you with the 59 split ute when we were queuing to get into the Nationals.
Love your Type 3 8) but we need pictorial evidence of your 61 panel.

Thanks guys! Looking forward to gaining some great knowledge from everyone on here and making a few new friends :)

Cam: I'm in the right place then :lol:
Squidy: Aiming for a similar standard, however this one will be used as a business van, so can't guarantee it'll stay like that!
4tune8: There will be photos, they're stuck on my phone at the moment. They're on their way though :)
KombiMadness: Thanks for the official intro, it gets a bit hard trying to figure out who you've met when everyone's under different names!
Tails/ Shayne: I hope you don't think it rude... but have i met you yet?? I lose track with the amount of people that run up to me in the type 3 :lol: (I'm so so so sorry if we have met! My memory is horrid!)

DUB187: It's plodding alng nicely. As per most rests, there were a few unexpected things needed doing, but definitely on the right track :)

Shaven: Thanks! Can't wait for it to be finished! Although then I'll have to pick between cars.... :shock:

Welcome Kat, look forward to seeing what you have under wraps (the bus and the business venture). Best of luck with both.
