hi everyone i just thought i would put a project thread up for this as i bought it just to smoke about in and get me to work ect but ive found my self doing stuff to it to make it slightly better anyway here goes.
this is how she looked when i bought it england flag bonnet aswell

thats the only picture i can find of it on standard shoes so anyway i bought some cheap speedlines for my other nova so i thought i would put the astra sport wheels and my all red bonnet on this one

anyway as you can see from these pics its pritty faded so after putting it off and off and off i finally got the stuff together to buff it:tard:
so heres the start of that
wing and bonnet gone over

half the roof done

all the roof done

but the passenger side was then looking more pink than the drivers so i did it again

thats how i left her on friday as it started going dark and i had to go pick the mrs up.
how she looked when i came out saturday morning

altho she does look like shes got a twisted bottom lmao
and thats all ive done upto now oh apart from putting a cd player in
future plans are to continue buffing till its all red then just polish the nuts out of it and maybe lower it other than that im pretty sure itll stay standard.
comments always welcome.

so thats it all sort of one colour the next step is to get some auto-glim paint renivator and some wax and give it a right good going over.
