ANy way it looks like a nice car

When it is done I want it to look similar to this

I like your car! There's something really special about a '68... 'Twas the first model to introduce the upright headlamps and tombstone rear lights - amongst other things.

I had one too of course so that makes me bias

Enjoy it!

Yes I love it as well I've got the original purchase order of the 1'st owner and was bought on the beginning of the year in Johannesburg and has lived here ever since

Cool! That's some nice historical literature to hang on to.
I didn't have that with my '68 although I bought mine from a friend's mother which was good enough for me. She'd had it for years and carted their three boys everywhere in it. She refused to drive anything else and trust me they could afford to as her husband had a '68 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud as well as a Jag XK120 amongst many other cars. I was very privileged to have been given the option to buy it (she wouldn't even let her son have it) as she knew what they mean to me. Sadly it wasn't a very happy car when it came into my possession - I pushed it more than I drove it! I ended up having to sell in the end. It still pains me...

Anyway, back to YOURS...! It's awesome! 1500 I presume?

I just love that green and white it is such a great color choice well DONE!!! how much out of interest should a paint job like that cost?

You sounding like a pro now

Yes it is a 1500 the motor has been done and I have the invoice forgot who did the motor

The paint don't know i will be getting prices next year and i will be painting it myself
I like the color to it's clean and fresh

Nice car! I just love that pattern upholstery, my '68 fasty has the same material and pattern

The interior has some small holes i don't know if I must get them repaired or if I must leave it for some caricature
