I've just read this from start to finish for about the 10th time :proud: How do you get such neat folds in the metal work, like the lips on the bonnet etc?

If I told you I'd have to kill you... Lol only joking! Do you mean along the edges? I just use mole grips to get the lip, then use a hammer and a hard surface to straighten out the edges to neaten them up, takes a little while n u need patience lol

Total madness lol can't believe so many people have looked! And commented! Garret offered to send some funds so I can get some sheet metal, but I kindly rejected his offer as its not money I need to finish the shell, it's sheet metal, appreciate the kind gesture though mate!

I really hope I can find some metal soon, don't want to let anyone down lol
