    My panel beater/sprayer, sprayed rust inhibitor and filled my car with a yellow wax, like they use in Europe, due to salting the roads over there in winter. Then he left it sit for another couple of months pumping more in each time it settled. Hopefully it works well. But I was very lucky he didn't find a great deal of rust in the Panno. Hope to keep it that way (shedded).

    I actually can't imagine letting someone drill holes all over my brand new car. Mostly you can get the stuff in all the places without drilling the holes anyway.

    I have seen a few old holdens with these black grommets in the body. My 253 valencia had it also. Quite a few had a Ming rustproofing sticker in the window

    id be interested in a closer pic of the bottom of the rear quarter i haven't looked closely enough at pics how the width of blackout changes from sill to beaver panel, i assume it starts at sill blackout width and goes to the top of beaver panel? im not sure where to stop the black on beaver

    WHAT A BEAUTIFUL COLOUR!

    If I were doing a van from scratch I'd paint it papaya for sure. It looks perfect with the black accents.

    What a knockout!
