    '79 GLD banger.

    Ok so got it home and started to dismantle to see what the damage was.


    The first thing I did was rub back the bonnet and prime that.


    With that dont I took the front grill and bumber off to do the front panel.


    There was quite a sizable dent in the front panel inbetween where the chin spoiler fits and where the bumper goes.
    Not quite sure what im going to do about it but for now I just pushed it out so its fairly straight.


    The interior is a perfect (apart from a cracked dash) brown cloth style one.



    I was just wondering what the deal is with the mirror positioner. Is it a stock feature?


    After finishing the front I took it down the road for a little photo shoot.





    You're not gangsta' unless you have soot.


    My plan for this car is to respray it a little darker silver (a bit closer to the graphite colour), lower it, chuck some nice rims on, clean up the engine a little and use it as a beach bus. Maybe sometime down the track chuck a new engine in it but im in no rush to do that.

    Cheers, Lofty.
