The Shermanator lives on!

Looks damn good to me for £160.

Keep us update on your progress - the bodywork doesnt look bad at all.

That colour scheme will look really good with a clean and polish. Well done

Hi,

Thanks for saving another 240 Gary.

It is just a coincidence that you have yourself a lovely car as well..

Maybe if you were younger it might end up looking like this:

The charcoal grey is a lovely colour!

It belongs to my son Matt. I do burrow it on occassions and crank the volume up around Amlwch (out local "town") with his dance music and leave him to get the blame!

There are some nearly finished pic of the front :http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showth...t=30911&page=2

The rear end didn't quite get finished on Sunday due to getting collared to help elsewhere. I will try and get some almost finished pics up very soon but at present the weather is too bad to really take any.
