Right then, I dont know if you moved the photos into an ablum after you has posted the links on here, but I had a look at your links and "1965%20Aussie%20Notch/" was missing from all the photos which didnt work, it was looking in your account default folder rather than in your notch folder. Ive edited them and now they work :D

Regards the car, hell of a project. But looks more solid than it is, i think, Are you an experienced restorer? whats the plan for the cars, stock, slamer, nice daily ect? Good luck!

Ahh :oops: that makes sense haha thank you for sorting them for me . And yeah the shell is pretty solid few bits that need sorting and welding but I’ll get there :) and I’m no experienced restorer haha this is the biggest project I’ve taken on but I’ve loved notches for so long that it’s not going anywhere once it’s done so I’m just going to take my time and pick up tricks on the way haha and it’s going to end up a weekend car so going to be pretty low but not too low that I can enjoy it and cheers mate I’m going to update this page as I go along :thumbsup:

sorry for the later reply, i don't have the aussie reg and the car is currently in Kent UK. I think its been passed through a few hands in the UK, hopefully on the road soon!
