How about a post that shows what we bought to what we now got
bang up some pics of your ride when you started and when you finished ( or almost ) if we put em all in one spot it might make it easy for guys doing a build to get some ideas
Ive got heaps from this forum and friends so put up some shots from woe to go
cheers Paul






get on it and show us your shots

CANT AFFORD ONE ALL MY MONEY WENT INTO MY CAR. :f

No these are the photos I got when I bought the car, showing its comprehensive resto, when she arrived from Alabama this same album was in the boot.....since then I has spent untold amounts of time & money to get it into the best possible shape I can for this coming weekend.I hope it wasn't all in vain , I guess Sunday I will either be sulking or celebrating :2 :2 ( fingers crossed )

Yeah me too. It just gathers dust in the garage. After seeing these pics, I am really tempted to restore my dad's 66 GT. But the oxygen sensor needs to be replaced. Having a hard time finding that part though.

Don't you love it when someone says "What'd pay for that!"...
and you tell them and they say "man, that's an unbelievable price"

but they don't aks how much you've sunk into it after "buying" it.
Buy the time we're finished, it's not unusual to cost multiples of the original buy price.
