STREET MACHINE MAGAZINE (SUMMERNATS ) issue February 2012

Our son Jodys special car ( 1971 H.Q. Holden Monaro ) is on the front cover of the Street  Machine Magazine.

The centre fold poster features Jodys car, with " Miss Summernats "

Inside the magazine is a 6 page story of his car.
I think for car enthusiasts ,the photos will tell a story 
Jody say "I started with the roller Monaro. It was in average condition but the tubs, cage, and missing tags, meant it was just impossible to take it back to original.




Taking 3 years to complete, as he only had time after working hours and on weekends.
Jody and his brother Kyle have their own panel shop called "OLDS-COOL"

Jodys car was unveiled, and was called the WOW FACTOR CAR in Canberra.

He won----- 1st for "THE HIGH IMPACT AWARD"  also
2nd "TOP CUSTOM"  and
3rd "TOP BODY WORK"
Applying the paint---- critical for this car ,against the bare metal-- took 4 weeks
The spray painter Kyle is Jodys brother "It was a big job," Jody says with classic understatement
"Kyle had no previous experience with House of Color product, but Owen was terrific with support.'

This car was also judged in the "TOP 10"
"Those crocodile trim seats are something else. The rim is symmetrical around the centreline of each seat, and the seats are identical. Also the steering wheel -thanks to Musty, and Danny the boys at Customised Trimmers." says Jody
