[antondude]

So its been a while since i have done anything major to the car. Just been busy with a lot of other things and have done a few things to the new Hilux i picked up earlier this year.

I have now started a business for Car paint restoration and scratch repairs.
Check out my facebook page for all the upcoming work that i will be doing, flick us a like and keep tuned - https://www.facebook.com/astrorestoration

Here is some snaps of work ive done -

This was after the car has been clayed down and washed -

 

[VS 5.0]

I see this is for sale !

What are you getting as a replacement ?

I still have the car actually and for the last 5 years its been spending most of the time in the shed.
Weekender very rarely have been driving it. The rear shock went and was rubbing against the tyre so it has sat in the shed for the last 2 years and I've just been letting it run in there during that time.

I've decided to get her back on the road and installed coilovers in her over the weekend. Going to get it wheel aligned but havent dropped her too low see back.

Next plans.
Re-spray again... to the colour I originally wanted, likely at this stage Panther Mica. When I bogged the doors to respray a couple, never was 100% and I wasnt happy. The bonnet has big chips from a truck that dropped all these rocks on it going down south..
(This time will be taking engine out and doing the engine bay, along with fuse re-allocation behind the guard and blanking the holes.

Try to obtain some VS GTS/Senator seats and get ride of the VE leather seats

Here is a shed skid video VS Shed Skid

Panther looks **** hot, but if you decide to daily it, be prepared to get new stone chips and scratches pop up on a fortnightly basis.... Ask me how I know....
