He is a West Aussie
Rob is a bloody car building and restoring superstar just out there trying to help others learn new skills. He has plenty to share.

Put the kettle on or in the words of Billy Birmingham “fill the fridge full of piss” It’s going to be good.






Then the tailgate gets customized. HSV inspired and it’s a work of art so far

I'm not sure this is the appropriate place for this but I'll approve it and have a think about it.

Yeah I had a think too. It’s a great build. I thought maybe General Projects or even in the VY section but there is some absolute gold in these. Unique skills and smash repair fixes. I posted because I see value in the build. It is well documented and unique. I’ve never come across one like it.

This may very well help a VY owner in the future.

Happy to go with what ever though.

Maybe it should be in the panel and paint bit. I couldn’t figure it out.
All going well, Rob joins up and add to it.

He did a crazy good XA Coupe too.

Haven't checked the Y tube link but is this the same bloke that pulled a big front-on, out of a ute using the tractor and chain method?

Yes. He went on to document removal of the HVAC and now moved on to a custom HSV inspired tail gate.
