About to turn around and strip the tins a 3rd time. It’s going to get a satin black paint job from left over tins from work.

I’m a blue oval guy. AU2 XR6 BF XR6 BF2 XR6 ea2 Fairmont had numerous xd xe Falcon cars and wagons.
I rate AU2 as the best of the lot and if I could find one and finances allowed I’d be buying a AU3 VCT Cobra. B series suspension is a consumable- 2

Did you do anything regarding upgrade to the valve springs? I had one with a cam and a little head work in it in my first stockcar and they were the built in rev limiter at around 7500rpm. You probably know this but pay attention to the oil pump drive.
They’re a great little motor apart from those two things

Yeah. I wanna stay with the yellow. I’m just gonna run the base coat and wax the shit out of it. Back guard also frittered so that’s a strip as well.

FYI there is now a Northland OS Facebook page. I’ve invited everyone I can think of so if I’ve missed anyone give me a holler. This was permitted with consultation with El Presidente

Pictureless update due to being angry at myself.
Had tank and front guard in top coat and had sanded the couple of small runs out.
Gave it a wipe down with a rag and some prepsol. Let it dry and started putting on the (what I thought would be) topcoat before the clear. Finished up and left them in the sun.
Went back half an hour later and the frigging lot has reacted.
Turns out this Rustoleum paint doesn’t like prepsol.FUCK
IT
ALL.
so front guard has been ripped back to bare steel again. Tank tomorrow.
Faaaaaarrrrrrrrkkkkkkk it all

Just how bad was the head injury ? Don't decide paint while stunned.
Lol. It was a decision made between me, wife and daughter. I was absolutely done and lucid at the time

YELLOW. Throwback to my old days where my first 2 bike were yellow. I think it will look okay- 2
