Gday from Sydney

Where to start !!!!

"Long time listener first time caller"

The car is in great hands at the moment with Darren Vawser recomissioning all the main systems (cooling, breaks, fuel, ignition carb rebuild etc) and should be getting it back soon.

Next steps

Im needing some direction / help with

1) repainting the car in NSW without paying "Rolls Royce tax" and was wondering if anyone has used a great painter recently.

2) Headliner / trimmer contact wanted to redo the headliner

3) Woodwork - looking for a contact to restore all the woodwork in Australia

4) The leather is in good condition - just wanting advice on cleaning / re feeding the leather - I dont want to reclour the leather at all if possible.

As im sure many of you know the list is endless but thats where i am at the miniute

As its current custodian, please be gentle on me in the comments I am trying my best to do right by the car

Kind regards

Adam

Nice chrome bumpers !

Is the veneer still in tact, if it is, you could do the wood yourself ?
What's your skill-set ?
