So many good cruises and car shows coming your way. Fam in the car. Kids growing up remembering dads VC.
Good times.

I know a guy doing a bare metal restoration.

We were out one day and he rationalised the cost to his wife as it being a good investment. She snapped back “its only an investment if you’ll sell it some day, but that will never happen will it”…

I felt a little embarrassed as I laughed out loud at her quick retort :p:p:p though I know she’s also understanding of his spend :cool:

Hahaha, yeah luckily she doesn’t mind. She knows I’m a car guy through and through. Wanting to move further out for some more space for more cars though

Anyways spent yesterday rolling around on the grass trying to find a good front guard, unfortunately the 11 I looked at all had some form of rust, which was no better than the one I already had

Ended up finding this VL door, has a dent but not the worst, not a lick of rust. Will just need the holes welded up

And this is an action shot taken moments before I got bitten by a spider

This side was pretty rough so he pulled the damage and smoothed it all.

Checked over it all and smooth it's smooth as egg's.
