WAS... going to 'wrap it' .....but paint is now the order of the day
the beauty of wrap is you can bodyfill sand and just wrap over, if it bubbles, lift fill sand and restick!
heres one I did earlier!
interesting picture, looks million dollars too.
how does wrap sick to the body?
how does wrap form to a curve?
how do you learn how to do it?
is it cost effective campared to painting...labour and materials?
that will do for now...

hi Ray, thanks for the info.Hi Peter.
It's sticky backed....and you use heatgun to shape....
and in todays world, if you want to see how something is carried out, you have to look no further than You Tube and its all there for the world to see!
its only cost effective if you are buying the wrap or paint supplies and doing it yourself.
each process left to experts these day is costly, goes without saying.
a cheaper alternative I have used on 3 cars to date.....is FABLON...
ah brings back memories.....of how we used to revamp our old kitchen units with this!!!
all the best for xmas

Hi folks......Still chipping away at this.....took it onto street for first time in years to just turn around...as can only work on one side at a time! and i wanted to see what it looked like!...and run like and did it stop! ....

it's not far off, but i have said that for years now!

before anyone asks.....its for flipping up the rear number plate for shows...as i hate plates!!!
View attachment 11165
but as is my usual way...a simple idea becomes more involved as i didn't want the plate to show when flat from rear!...so the fuel flap mechanism had to go through the floor....would have been too easy for it to just fit to the floor wouldn't it!!!

good for going through red light cameras , the harbour toll bridge , and all toll motorways here in Ozz, but just dont
get caught, or its Long Bay for 20 years and a diet of 10 day old prawns.....
Nicely done!
I will admit, I had reservations about how this was going to end up, and happily, it has turned out great.
There will be some who don't like it, and that's OK, each to their own. The wheels make the stance look seriously purposeful.
How does it handle as far as the road noise and in twisty bits?
