It's looking pretty bare these days! I'm sure it will be a major transformation when it returns.

Man oh man, I'm so over stripping and reassembling cars, these pictures make me feel uncomfortable,.
Slightly queasy perhaps? ;D

Yes that Goldy has been sitting like that for some time now. It's a wonder the counsel hasn't towed it away yet... now's the chance for request of sale and that's the argument, LOL. :D
I wonder if they will accept a Volvo as a swap? ;D ;D

In reality, I wouldn't want any other car than the one I've got anyway.
If that car does end up for sale, I'm sure someone will get it and restore it. I think people's awareness is up these days.
What you said in the last post was exactly what happened to my car, although the owners were forced to sell ASAP as they had to move back to Adelaide.

I don't think I want to buy into someone elses nightmare.

Nice to see the progress on Goldy.

Looking better already.

Yes, that sums it up quite nicely, Bill.

What a nightmare they can be !

Strangely, I'm in the unusual situation of actually enjoying the nightmare. ;)
I was also prepared for the ordeal and knew what I was getting into, so it came as no surprise. 8)
In fact, what was surprising is how good the car was just beneath the surface.

Nice progress Nathan - but why do you want two the same colour?
