Mazda 1500 Sedan

This used to belong to my Grand fathers neighbour, he had owned it since new and it still had plastic on the door trims. It had very low miles on it and had allways been serviced by the dealer when one day the old bloke got the accelerator and brake mixed up and smashed it. I ended up picking it up for a song and at the age of 17 thought I'd give it a go at fixing it. I gave it a good go and sold it to a dealer of all people for a tidy profit

I have a bit of everything.
Currently restoring a HJ Holden panel van (308/4 speed). The van was purchased 15 months ago and has been sandblasted inside out and upside down. The chassis has all new suspension and steering and I have reconditioned the motor and gearbox. It should be going to the panel beaters in a few weeks and I hope to be painting it around August/September this year.
I rebuilt my 1967 Chevrolet Impala 4 door hardtop (350/Powerglide) about 18 months ago. I am the 3rd owner of the Chev since new and keep in regular contact with the 2 previous owners.
