      I have taken 3 months off work to get stuck into it, its amazing how much can be achievedwhen working on it full time. I see your ute is coming along nicely too. Thanks Andrew.

    Good to see another update on the Yski. I'm not a fan of those wheels but i'm sure will look awesome when done. Keep up the great work mate and the honesty !! Cheers.

      Yeah I'm not real keen on the front runners but they will do until I can afford something different. Cheers mate

      @@barefootrestos I wasn't putting a downer on it, I'm sure you'll make it look good either way. Great that you go to the effort of filming these builds. Anything XW or XY now has a GT tax imposed on it. Keep at it, i'm learning too from you.

    Fantastic work, definitely the right way to build cars. Good tips for everyone and even experienced people. I remember doing those doors when i was panel beating, lower section is very hard to shrink to get the oil canning out. Valiants are similar to repair. Just rebuilding my wifes 67 impala that was supposed to be %95 restored. Ha,ha, windscreen channel didnt exist and the lower cowl you can put your hand through. Flippers, never send your stupid fat barsted father in law to look at cars. Devilbiss Flg is a great gun. Not wrong, dont use cheap guns or tools. Did that when i was an apprentice, waste of money and makes more work. Just bought 2 Flg guns , great value for money. Keep up the videos mate , makes me want another Zd fairlane.

      Thanks mate, good luck with your build, sounds like a fair bit of work. The right tool for the job is definitely important, the paint gun has made a big difference. Cheers.

    Be careful to listen to what Sylvester says and does. I have noticed a couple of things he says and does is inaccurate.

      Ok thanks Darrell, I did have some issues with his sand blasting videos, I don't think that's one of his strong points. must admit I'm taking bits of his advice and applying it to my own methods, my background is bridge works and I have a fair bit of experience with protective coatings so I'm focusing on getting the most out of the coatings and just trying to get a good finish with the limited experience I have with body work. Thanks for the advice much appreciated.
