Thats how it looked when I got it.

thats not long after it was painted, at this point it was decided to do a full resto and thats when it became a big job (as it always seems to do)

So the engine had to be bare metalled, this was done by Geelong Soda Blasters.

Another pic of the bay

Just a random pic at home on the hoist.

Now we skip a lot of the work due to me being to stupid to get more pics.[:o)]
But here we are at how it is today.
