At Last......I kidnapped a nerd!

[mckackie]

I have finally cornered a nerd(Mrs Mckackie) to post some pickies of our new family member up.....so indulge yourselves in our shed find pics(in the gallery) an tell me what you think. I'm in the process of smurfing bits n pieces out to begin the beautification process. All mechanicals were done by previous owner....engine, suspension, brakes....all I gotta do is make it look gorgeous, and that won't be hard coz there is absolutely NO major rust issues anywhere....just on the surface. Its going for a roadworthy this week, so she just may be on the road again sooner rather than later aswell.

Nice one [MENTION=697]mckackie[/MENTION] and palaias white to boot. Apparently that's sought after colour, dunno why.. it's just white. Anyway looking forward to more progress, will you keep the side windows?

Looks to be HX which would make it Cottilion White? ( Not that I'm trying to win the "Correct the site owner" trophy)


Nice van. It's almost a shame to make it beautiful on the outside. You don't see many in that shape anymore.

Wow! that looks great! Give it a buff and polish and keep it original. I really like that look of old but well kept.
Well done. I like it.

mmmm. Like that guy at the AHD with his ridgy didge original white Sandy, it stood out from the crowd being in its original working clothes. I recon there is $$$'s in patina, especially if the base underneith is sound and solid. I would be thinking hard about preserving its history. Tough call when you are all psyced up to get her looking shmicko. Good on you either way.
