Loving it matey!!! Will be starting mine soon enough

[Boots]

Im so slow at updating, sorry for that, but alot has happend!

I came in to some financial difficulty and had to sell up the subframe and running gear, but i then found a watsons frame 2nd hand and got her back together!

So once i was back on track again she looked like this



Then i took to the job of mounting the rad in its final position



Needed to do a bit of custom routing with the top hose



And here is how she stands now



Also she has started

First Start, no exhaust

So close now, shes booked in for a custom exhaust on friday 11th

Im off to the garage to tweek my gearlinkage

Hi,
How far do your wheels stick out of the front arches?

Cheers

Paul

[Boots]

[Baldspeed Racing]

looking awesome mate, fingers crossed for the MOT but Im sure she would fly thru

[Mark@IR]

Car looks great, good luck with the MOT

She would definatly look alot meaner with black grill and the such on the front end though, to match the roof and archs and wheels...

Nice though... She'll be alot of fun

[Boots]
