    The Paintwork will need a re-spray at some point. Due to there being a minimum amount of rust. 1 rear wheel arch, which the clipper kit hides, I decided to get the golf car clear coated and brought back to life using a company in the hills district called "In the Clear".
    The results are amazing! All for $595.. John's results where very impressive. This was the oldest paint hes brought back to life. I should really have charged him for the privilege... He Does all cars and paint work using RestorFX. John 0425 245 683

    Less than $600 for a new paint surface. That has to be the bargain of the year.

    What sort of warranty do they give?

    Paint looked good before but certainly came up a treat. Interested how it holds up.

    Did you see the head unit up for sale last week by Bamish1000, would possible suit your car.

    I did, he actually offered me it prior too.

    I really want the car as original as I can, it would have come with the Gamma or Gamma 2. Although dealers did change them.

    So think I've going to buy the gamma 2 on the green mat in the earlier pic. It's made by Blaupunkt.
