25.01.2022 VH SLE update: body in its last coat of primer... ready for some colour.... now on to the hanging panels to finalise

24.01.2022 Well.... after a lengthy stint with sand paper blocking the engine bay, finally got it into primer. Finish is awesome, won’t take too much more before I can shoot some colour on it.

24.01.2022 Coming up this month in our Classic Car Sale, take a look at this custom VL Commodore, inspired by the VK Group A SS.

23.01.2022 Current build for GQ Customs. VL Group C concept build

22.01.2022 EH Holden update: sub frame below the radiator now finished and in epoxy. Now moving on to the sheet metal repairs for this piece.

19.01.2022 VH SLE UPDATE: Long few days. Engine bays are hard work. All done. 4 coats of colour, three coats of clear.. came out mint.

18.01.2022 The Burgandy on the VH has just a bit more pop than standard.... looks awesome.

18.01.2022 More EH subframe repairs. More to go yet.

14.01.2022 VG SLE Commodore update. First coat of HS surfacer blocked on all panels and body.... back in HS surfacer and ready to block down again.

13.01.2022 Time for an EH update. I am currently re-building the front sub-frame. Tin worms have taken their toll on this piece. Currently finishing up the lower front section. Still have to make the bumper reinforcing buckets and the side reinforcing sections. This piece had to be completely remade. Metal underneath this section is mostly ok but there is some sheet metal that will have to be fabricated before the new lower subframe is welded back in. Work in progress.

12.01.2022 Porsche 987 Cayman Project: Started a new project this week. Stuart’s 987 Cayman in for its first round of custom installed parts. This project will evolve over time into a subtle outlaw build. First Jobs: Centre bonnet fuel cap install, accented with Porsche gold details: quik-latch bonnet pins: replace rear cayman logo with black Porsche logo. Great start to an interesting project.

10.01.2022 Reuben’s BMW K100 engine painted today in Satin Black. Photos don’t do it justice. Will look great on his cafe racer project

10.01.2022 VH update: windscreen wiper cowling is tight and difficult to paint. I decided to do this in colour first so it can be taped off when the engine bay is painted. Came out really well, hard to get the metallic sparkle on a photo. This shade of Burgundy is going to look awesome on the car when it’s done. Engine bay next

09.01.2022 EH Holden Update: front subframe has now had rust repairs done. An epic affair to say the least, but looking good again. Just the outer sub frame leg end to replace, but will bolt it on to the body first.

08.01.2022 Side project for this week. Been helping Reuben with his BMW K100 cafe racer build. Engine in the booth ready for its satin black paint. Will shoot it this week at some point.

08.01.2022 BMW K100 engine, satin black. Going home today. Looked sweet with the covers on.

07.01.2022 EH Update: Subframe finally bolted on. Outer sub frame legs have also been replaced. Still some finishing to go, but nearly there. Next panels will go on for a trail fit before they are repaired and reconditioned.

07.01.2022 More EH front subframe rust repairs. Nearly ready to weld this major section back together.

06.01.2022 Body on Steve’s VH SLE fully sanded this week and in HS surfacer ready for yet more sanding to get it nice and flat for paint.

03.01.2022 Just finished installing a custom Airconditioning system in our Group C VL Commodore. Everything is brand new. It received a Vintage Air GEN IV Magnum system with additional climate control module by Dakota Digital. Additionally: new pump, condenser, receiver dryer and hoses. Good bye to the old vacuum controlled vent system and hello to full electronic modernisation. Should be great for a cruise on a hot day.

03.01.2022 It’s taken a while, but this beautiful machine turned back up today after being assembled by its owner. It’s back for final fettling before it gets registered. I finished the paint on this Porsche 964 Carrera 2 in 2016. Looks absolutely gorgeous in that Factory Guards Red.

02.01.2022 VH Update: 3rd time in HS. A spray down with prepsol let’s you see how flat the panels are. Roof and quarters done and looking sweet. Body will be done this week and in its final primer before colour goes on.....
