I removed the bonnet catch, painted it then screwed it back on, by the time I got home, my friend had masked it off. I figured it wouldnt do any harm to stay on. Its not going to be a showstopper, just a low budget "something different"...

I dont care for the "I should know, i've worked for them for 5 years" line

Kinda like, "its ok, you can trust me, I'm an insurance agent"..

I just want to paint everything this colour now.

Yes, wood with the fabric applied using a 3M aerosol adhesive

Good luck

Mine is a similar template cut out but I covered it with "marine vinyl" which is nothing more than waterproof fake leather. Local fabric shops should have it.

Hi Paul,

Yes, Go To - Franks Workshop - "Uncle Frank's Other Pics" - It's about 8 posts from the bottom on the first page

I think the Spax kit that is being mentioned here is very similar to the kit I have - it was sold in the States by Koni, the extended bolts allow for the kit to sit over top of the existing Armstrong shock. If anyone wants any more photos/dimensions let me know as it will be on a car this summer. ht...

Hi Chris, I think it is correct, not sure though. I have an aftermarket Koni kit for the front, but I'm looking at keeping it for another project.

Hi all, Been looking for this pic for some time.... this is me with my first Marina http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r14/chrisfielding/marina/MED_0027.jpg and me in my one about 33 years later, I guess I've been in this hobby a long time :D http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r14/chrisfielding/mari...

I could possibly make that trip over, would probably know a little closer to the time, no cars though..

Chris

Nice idea, I like the look of how the new dodge challenger has retained the styling cues of the old one, its nice to see that a new car can be made without that horrid jelly-mold styling. Maybe we should give this guy a call to do us all a new retro-modern marina design..... http://www.carbodydesign...

Looks like they took a grinder to the wheel arches to make them fit though.

Nice find. Is this the first Marina its ever been mounted on? It looks immaculate

I'd prefer to see a Marina with aftermarket wheels than one with a dropped roof and shaved door handles.
