    Well Ive read through this whole thread, its taken a while, kept coming back to it till I'd read the whole lot.
    Very impressive. What can I say that hasnt already been said X 100?
    Especially doing all that outside. And many would have given up, but you just keep going...Great!
    My suggestion would be to get her running and driving, that will give you a huge reward, also likely identify things you may want to change. Once she is driving, you can always do paint interior etc later on.
    Hope to say hello at Supernats.

    I may live in East London, I may have a number plate that reads "Chopt",
    but I do NOT use 6" wheel spacers!

    Thanks Ian, My intention is to get it running in paint and then do the shake down without the interior. Hopefully next year.

    The Boot fit was never quite what I’d hoped for, so I took it of and reworked it a bit…





    Once I was happy it got a few coats of primer and then my latest chosen top colour, I suppose when a build takes so long there’s always a chance your colour taste will change!!





    Then I fitted it, so it’s out of the way for now. It’s a matt Cream.









    Next on the list is the rear wings!!

    That’s it for now, more when I do more.

    Cheers. Tim W.

    Thanks John, yep I did re-skin it but I was never totally happy with the fit, also had a few track marks to sort from the English Wheel.

    Well I spent yesterday in Morefield's Eye Hospital, apparently I have two holes in the retina of my left eye. I'm now awaiting a call to go get it operated on. According to the Doc I'll not be Pop working this side of Christmas . So don't worry if I'm not posting any progress for a while.

    More when I can see more

    Cheers. Tim W..

    Watch what you are doing Tim
    Look after yourself! The rod can wait although it very frustrating when you can’t do anything. I hope things work out for you ok.
