I recon Matt is living a dream of producing his own show like American Hot Rod where there is alot of pressure and suspense to get the job done on time.
Of course it is obviously produced and pre recorded and Matt actually finished it a month ago. :-D

Fess Up Matt :poke:

I wish this was the case

Only posted a few hours ago and its now 2.45 am over here. Heading back down there now to finish off the interior. Have to wait till 9am for the painter to arrive to finish sanding the car...think I will get board and do it myself so that way he only has to polish it

I just want to see it in the sun....thats where I can see the colour properly

pulled an 18hr day yesterday. (thanksgiving day)

Car is together (sorta) meeting the painter down at the car as he still needs to buff some areas he missed (as it was 6pm when he did it) and I still need to fit some door panels and temp fit a few other things.

A friend of mine came over yesterday and sorted 95% of the electrical...just minus indicators and interior lights...they dont use em over here anyways...might pull this off.

Paint came out good but I still havent seen it in the sunlight

A quick sneak peak at yesterdays photo shoot in St Augustine FL.

The car is a different colour now (more of what I wanted) Had an extremely hectic day yesterday. Thermo fan came off and hit the serpantine belt...headlight switch seazed up...exhaust popped off its clamp...wiper blade spring just sprung off for no reason (dam tiawanese shi7)... gearbox shi7 itself just after the photo of Sheri and myself was taken... but worth every photo.

Its the joy of building cars and pulling 18 days before the rod run.

Heading off to the turkey rod run again today. Will get some pics. Cant believe how many cars are for sale. Would easily be a 1000 plus cars up for grabs...nice ones too

Must admit I had my reservations about the concept of a ute conversion.
But seeing these photo's I now consider myself "converted"
Well done Matt, that is a cool lookin' ride. :bowdown:

I'm not generally a fan of ute conversions either, but that looks tops Matt.
