Bit left of field but the taillights appear to be VB, rather than VC....VC have black running through the centre of the taillights and horizontal inbetween each light source...ie blinker/brake/reverse light...
Good spot, I hadn't even noticed. Car came with a single VC tail light and the pair of (what I now know) are VB tail lights. Will likely look for another VC tail light as the black probably looks nicer than the red, but I'm a while away from this
Even bead blasting can warp panels. Go with soda and then use something more abrasive around the rusty areas and in places where warping is unlikely to occur.
Yeah I don't know the ins and outs of sandblasting, however I trust the mob doing it and they've done more than enough to know what they're doing.
Nice, look forward to following your build, What's the running gear going to be?
Great question, not too sure yet. I'm thinking a 304 but going for the ol' Carby setup to look "period correct", and by carby I mean something like the Holley Sniper EFI. That's a while away though, I've got plenty of mates with LS's that go hard, just not sure I'm all for it.
Will get the body all painted and back together before stressing too much, especially with the prices I've seen recently. But hey, that's how it is these days.
