Looking good mate.
 
I'd go for white if anything.

Dont overlook POR15 Whitecoate, it is the hardest toughest paint Ive ever tried to damage with sharp car keys and was only able to make a thin hard to view slice with a sharp stanley knife. Metallics or Pearls can be added, no runs, no orange peel, used by Nasa and cheap compared to PPG or similar weaker paints. It can also be applied with quality rollers but Ive been adviced to even use the cheapest spray gun I could get because when it hardens or as it hardens it will block it then no amount of solvent will help. It really is crazy paint and usually the Black Coate is the one used for chassis but many use both on ducos.
 
 
That interior is mad, would look insane.

Looking the goods there very unique and love the lines!

Hi all, got a few more pics of the progress to date. Coming up very nice and clean at the back. A few other mods have to be done to bulkhead as mine is stuffed! So hopefully it will be ready for paint in another two weeks all things going well. Will have more news next week in regards to a possible double purchase of 1000's...fingers crossed.

I've had the bug for 25 yrs now but it was just on hold! The digital setup is for appearance only but if all going well this weekend there may be a coupe setup, but still really like the digital. I'm not a die hard traditionalist so not concerned about making the changes...besides I've got a wagon that will be more of a standard style, except for side windows being removed and filled in with panel!!!!

just noticed the embossed diamond strengthening squares on this rear section that kiwi is magic!

Hey all slow progress but this is how it looks so far. Went and made an offer on a coupe and a wagon a couple of weeks ago but still haven't heard as yet. Will be wrecking the wagon as they stacked a Subaru on its roof....WHY!!!! Coupe is not bad. Colour is going to be Toyota diamond white metallic, can't wait!

Looking good.
 
While you are doing your Heater... here is some more info on the early heater Resto I did earlier in my build.
The pics are just a mock up to illustrate the steps im describing.
 
Cut the head from an M5 Bolt and wrap the end tightly in tape intill it fits tightly inside the Knob.
Then insert the assembly into a drill and lightly wet sand using a fine wet/dry sand paper.
Then switch to some polish and a rag.
 
Only use light pressure when sanding and polishing to limit the tape from slipping within the Knob.
 

 
Give it all a good clean, then use some model paint in the letter void. (Don't worry if paint goes on the Knob)
Then before the paint drys take a pencil eraser tightly wraped in a clean rag and give it a quick wipe. (May take a few trys, and may need a very light wipe with some wax&grease remover or something similar)

 
You will end up with a brand new looking knob.
You can also do choke knobs, cigarette lighter knob like this.
 
Plus you can do your horn button, instrument panel, emblems ect with the eraser/clean-rag technique.
The eraser dosn't seem to reach into the shallow voids like fingers in a rag tend to do.

Double sided tape should see them sticking again.
Run the tape past all the edges of the sticker to ensure you have 100% coverage, then cut off the excess with a set of clean, sharp scissors.
 
Or my little bro (Andrewzuku) sells repro sticker sets for $10 through his retrojdm site.

He was making some stickers for his celica and had to do a run in silver, so he made these up to use up the sheet.
 
They are printed on a metallic silver coloured sticker, so not 100% original, but they are pretty close.

 
Personally, i think because you have the originals in such good shape, i would use the originals.
 
 
I have a spare "V" if you need one

 
Hi all. It's been a while but finally been primed and final coat
of hi fill so will hopefully be in colour before Good Friday. And hopefully back in my garage for Anzac Day long weekend, then the fun of putting all my reco bits and pieces back on. At least while it's been in the panel shop I've had time to polish, repair and re paint all the little one percenta's that I probably wouldn't have if it came back any earlier. Who would have thought that a 3 month paint and panel resto could take 14 months...haha!
