Just read the whole post and i bow to you sir, what a great job you are doing and what a fantastic car she looks.
I guess i am at the other end of the spectrum from your good self in that i am trying to build a complete car for only £2k.
But SWMBO has said if i finish this one this year i can get my dream mini van and have £5k to use.
Keep up the good work.

I've not seen your project page for ages but it looks like you're still making good progress.

I like the look of your front screen. How does it work with the electrical connector and the window seal? Also, where does the electrical connector come out of on the the screen?

I'm looking forward to seeing more progress.
