TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 hi rolla fans Thomas dad here just wont to say thanks for your comments and although i don't drink beer i don't mind the odd drop of johnny walker but as Thomas said i do it because i enjoy it and are getting ready to start the next project ke25 coup for my other son Brent. when we get started he will have to start a thread of his own but be sure this one will be different and worth following. as for Thomas ke11 still a few things to go ;deck out the boot with speakers and put in a wicked sound system so he can listen to the tunes he plays when DJ,s although the induction sound from the quad carbies is already wicked.and we really need to dump it done a couple of inch's.well i better get of his site before he catch's me and has a growl so by for now and thanks.

Â Also..... looking forward to seeing a thread for the 25. :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I'd love to know more about how you repaired that dash pad... but that can wait. hi there Ken Thomas dad here (Stuart) car was looking good and with a little more to get out the engine was running real sweet just hoping insurance don't wright it of and as you say version 3 will be better already started planing what we change. Any way about the dash what i did was cut all the cracks right out deap then filled with body filler sanded all back smooth then went to my mates joinery shop and used his laminex glue spray gun and using the aid of a heat gun stretched marine grade vynil over it as you can see by the photos it came up great, i hope this is of some help to you or if you would like to call me feel free to do so on 0428 574248.

67Rolla-Ken Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Thanks. That all sounds doable.. I might try the body filler then drop it off to my trimmer to do the vinyl. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
