I just thought you might be interested in some pictures of my "nearly" finished 67. Made in Australia so it has the same body as a Euro 63. I have done all the work myself and its taken 3 years of working two days a month on it. I have replaced the front and rear bumper mounts and front ends and rear valance, both A pillars and numerous other rusted out areas.    |

Will look great with the full red interior.
What tyre sizes did you go for in the end?
Thanks
Richard

Looks good man, classic colours, nice. I really like the '63, and since they made them here for 5 years that's pretty lucky I guess!  |

Love it, and the number plate is cool too. Got an old super 90 engine in the back?  |

A couple more days and it should be finished. I am fitting the stock motor for the shakedown and in 3 months will fit the stroker!   |

Took it for its first drive in 3 years, when I first bought it I only drove it 4 miles from the seller to my mates panel shop and its been there for 3 years until now. Have fitted the 1300 for a couple of months then the stroker will be fitted. Not sure about the location of the front number plate, might fit a buggy bar   My mate Kelvin in the background  |
