thats the idea, i was going to build a saloon, but with the engine being mid mounted, my plans are now to build a pick up for ease of access for engine repair/removal etc, plus with pick ups being so damn cool looking, it would be a shame not to!

i would love to build a replica of valerie (even though shes no longer with me!) or even just a van in general, one of them with a 50cc mini moto engine in would be insanely cool! would be fairly straight forward to with big flat panels, the only thing that might cause a problem would be the roof, getting that right would take some doing to get the curves to look right! but definitely when i have finished this one, ill make another that will be even better :)

It's more about imagination, if you can picture what you want to achieve, as long as u think about what your doing and take your time, anything is possible!
