Getting there slowly, the winter weather in Melbourne has meant plenty of shed time. Still have the interior to finish yet.



I'd rather have tools that I don't need, than not have the tools I do need.

I know it's just a bloody old Inter ute, but by God I want it. Absolutely fantastic job, particularly when you remember what you started with.

Southbound,
That looks great. You have done an amazing job.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

Thanks for the positive comments guys. I've finally got it out of the shed, gave it a sponge bath and got some photos in the sunshine.
Today I finished the lining in the ute back and sorted a couple of electrical issues.

Thank you. It has been a lot of work but I've become a bit attached to it now that it doesn't look like a project anymore.

I’ve started on the interior now. The dash is painted ✅

The door cards are now cut out and I’ll cover them in vinyl next. It won’t be a professional job but certainly better than the original which was Masonite painted green.

Look at you go, funny how it gets more exciting the closer the finish line is

Keep at Southbound, you'll be there soon enough

As a suggestion only as it is your project consider using some 1/8" foam under the vinyl, it does a better job as OEM.

Southbound,
A marvellous job. You should have it on the road for Yarra Glen on 12th November.

Cobbadog, foam under the vinyl is a good idea. It will look a lot better.
As far as I know, all car manufacturers since the 1980' s have used it under door cards, with thin plastic film stuck to the door. I have just started preparing the cab of my three tonner for paint, etc. and was planning to use stick-on sound deadening matting on all surfaces inside the cab. I expect that will be $100 to $200 worth of foam. I wonder if ordinary foam as you suggest would do a similar, and much cheaper, job. Any ideas?

I have my shoulder to the wheel,

I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!
