The guys at Unique Fabrications have done an exellent job on fixing that roof for me, the roof, front and dash now painted, I will paint the interior tommorrow and i have had the removables repaired but i will need to paint them, I would like to have it going for ReVolks, maybe half new green and half old green, 3 weeks to ReVolks ?

Im going for it, painted inside, started on the wiring, recoed stuff, and painted steering shaft, hand brake and pedals, put the front screens in, it will look good from the front doors forward, thats all the time i will have, want to concentrate on getting it regoed so the rear will be a bit crappy, all 4 brakes work now Brad and I put real tall tyres on it, need a ladder to get out, it should at least do 100kmh and stop! Only rego prtoblems will stop me, I should be able to get that done late next week.

Booked in for rego on wednesday, might just make it, although lots of 'I'll fix that later' going on, coming along nicely would have liked to spend more time on in when putting stuff on it but "I'll fix it later "
