Restoring a 1963 Holden EH Ute Part 1

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

At Pro Shop it's all about building dreams. In this project Pete takes on the challenge of keeping the 60 year old patina of this Holden ute and preserving its aesthetic for years to come. Part 1 of this build showcases the strip-down and clean plus removal and fabrication of the floor, tunnel and new chassis.
Thanks to my beautiful partner Anika for the video edit.

    Good to see your keeping that Holden looking like it would have a few months after it rolled off the production line..

    I like how your keeping the patina on this build. EH has to show its age somewhere. It's unique in its own way, showing its own character. Looks bad ass rising up from the dead. Look forward to part 2. Luv the EHS 👍😃

    Thanks John. I’m so pleased how this car has turned out. It’s just come back from the painters now with a satin clear coat on it and it looks amazing. Really locks in that patina. You’ll see that in the final fit-up video soon.

    Great job, but I have a question. So the new fabricated chassis is welded to the body? Any thoughts of bolting it to the body instead?

    It's a lot easier for engineering if it is welded in just like the original monocoque design.
