Removed the inner fenders for powder coating and found this on the inside of the left front fender. I was told the sheet metal was all original or replaced with nos parts, and so far all appears to be so after doing a quick google search.

Thanks Greg would be interested to know your mates details, i might check him out when i get there.My car was purchased off a guy who owns Marquez design, he does alot of after market parts and interiors aswell as high end builds. He is giving the car a makeover at the moment but struggles for time to spread over all he has going on, but i am getting a really good deal so i can't complain. Do you have in any pics of your 69 or a thread showing a bit about your car.
Mark. |

Well made it back from trip overseas, wow had a great time, unfortunately the car was not as far along as i hoped but it was great to see it in person. As many have said photos always look good but to see it in the flesh is nice.
Well my quick sand back and respray has gone a bit further than first thought but the Marquez guys are very fussy and he didnt want to send it over here unless it was perfect, there were a few minor ripples in the quarters so they got aggressive on it and it is now in full primer again. Getting to see the car like this atleast showed me there is no rust at all. A few pics nothing exciting but progress i suppose. ![]() ![]() http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/...carpics002.jpg ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Smothed firewll ![]() ![]() |

Hey Nev, the ss bonnet is mine the other one is off another car in the shop. Yes im getting the work done their, I suppose the main thing is the guy doing it was the previous owner and is giving me quite a few extras for nothing as it will go on web site to display some of his new products.

It's best to do it once and right which is what's happening with this build. Looking forward to future updates. I bet you can't wait to get it here and drive it

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ---------- I think he was taking the build part of his site down, not sure why but that's what he said. They are currently building some new products which i will have fitted to my car as well as his interior kit.The car was on his build site even before i purchased it, also it has a front bumper which was on the site aswell. |
