    Ya. It’s just so pathetic at this point. The spineless bastard knows that I live 26 hours away from him. He told me in the beginning that he “loves” long distance builds. I’ve learned why….the hard way

    Hey guys. Well you won’t believe this. BRIAN TRASK has sunk to a new low. I’m hoping everyone on here can spread the word for me on this So remember how I said that I had new door panels and rear panels coming from PG classics? This was arranged before I picked the car up. Brian called PG and...

    You’re definitely right. Lots of people have said on here that I’d learn a lot about the car etc by having to do things myself….and it has 100% been correct! Today I took the seats out and straightened the crooked coffin console and installed the carpet around it. I also installed the plastic...

    Thanks, Noel. Yep, just a pinhole. I just tried heating it up with a soldering iron. Not sure how well it got down into the hole. Here’s a better pic of the hole. If it doesn’t hold, il try cleaning the areas up and adding flux, then a re solder. Can’t hurt

    Thanks! Ya, it sure does pop! I am trying to find white inner door handles and plastic brackets. Doesn’t look like anyone makes them. I’ll likely have to order black ones and paint them. Mine are cracked and damaged

    Thanks a million! My favourite part about the car that I remember from when I was a kid, was the colour. I always thought that it looked like a car out of a cartoon! Lol. I’m surprised by how many people comment on it when I have it out for a drive, or take it to a cruise night….most of those...
