Aussie Ap6

Hello All
This is my 65 Valiant AP6, The body is getting a full restoration.
I’ve been doing all the body work myself, I’ve been at it for about 8 months now, It had a small amount of rust that I cut out and plated and I`ve just got all the body nice and straight and today I finely got some paint on it. The paint is called silver-mink and I put a gold pearl in the clear.
Cheers Doug

Got some more paint on the car today, I painted inside the boot, Got the back driver side door window frame done where I did the cut & shut & some of the fiddly bits.
Hopefully in two weeks it will be going down to the local panel beater for a coat of paint Name:  007-2.jpg

Welcome to the board....

Boot = Trunk
Bonnet = Hood
