Title: 87 Dyno D-tour - Ratty is the new NOS!
Post by: That Swan Guy on November 06, 2015, 12:49 PM: I know what I said but the small print did say "I have no more room"

So, I sold 3 and guess what?

I had an itch to scratch.

Got this for pennies delivered from the US.

The intention was to revamp it but upon inspection it was a solid as can be considering the surface rust.
It was then that I had an epiphany :LolLolLolLol:

Thank you to Alan (TFI Friday) Dave (Brummie) Patric (Senzo) and Paul Rosenlund from the US for helping out.

I've tried to be as accurate as possible and sympathetic with the condition of components.

Post by: oberonspacefruit on November 06, 2015, 07:09 PM: well played.
im still on the fence about being a member of the "dont restore" police, but that has a lot more style than if youd gone the full whack and powdered it, which is always a temptation......

That's the buzzword right now - Patina! I follow a few of the 'custom cars' forums and they are all going the same - no paint jobs, just a reuse of what they find in whatever condition!
