is my new work hack worthy of these pages?
it's an XA, sporting XB front sheetmetal, GS grille, driving lights & bonnet.
Smooth facia XA GT dash, 351 & toploader, purrs like a kitten.
it's been parked up for a few months, but we had it running within 5 minutes & it seems to drive fine.
first up it will be getting a coat of red oxide, then as i repair some spare panels i can red oxide them & swap them straight over.
paint colour is a difficult decision, but i'm leaning towards lime glaze.

suddenly it all turned ugly
all i wanted to do was replace the sill panel & somehow it just spiralled out of control.

time to rape the part car
ended up using a large portion of the chassis rail ( with factory tramp rod mounts), floor section & inner sill.
still quite a bit of work to do......
