View Full Version : SV8 Wombi edition
Spent the day doing this one. Its a very limited edition spec. Its the only one made. rumor has it that its so special, being Wombi spec and all, that Holden offered the owner an undisclosed amount to buy it back. The story says he declined and it must be true cause i got to make it shiney.
This was a very accommodating customer. I was given a nice lunch, which means better results. He was quite happy with my work, however did a few touch ups here and there lol I was always being told i had "missed a spot" although not by the Wombi himself lol
Anyway enough crap here are the pics after a Stage 2 finished in the lovely smelling Dodo Hard Candy Wax. Afters only. I have befores but i have no comparison shots plus they dont show the swirling very well so i didnt bother.
Enjoy,
Dan

Sensational finnish Dan! Wear your shiny hat with pride :hat: I'm sure Daz is a very happy camper, even though you missed a spot :stick: :wave:
Now you have to make mine that little bit more shiny just to piss wombie off. If a free lunch is what it takes, then so be it.

No worries. My best lunch so far has been Lasagne and salad lol Beat that and you get the best detail lol. Im only kidding. I really dont expect to be fed. Yours should look that bit more shiny anyway cause its metallic
