Good work tom, doesn't look to bad. Didn't you where a face mask? The filler dust is really not good for you.

hi mate where did you get your lower section from? cheers tom 


It's a heritage one from my localish mini shop, dsn.

After looking at your panel, I don't think it will be big enough, as it is only 2 1/4 " tall from the lower lip. About 2 inches below the bottom light hole.

Hope that help mate

No there used to be a big one at stafford county showground or bingley hall as most people call it? We have been out of the mini scene for a while but we did loads before, himley, doncaster, mitp, stoneleigh etc etc but im not sure whats what anymore? Great forum here though so im sure I wont miss anything!
