A few final touches today...
Had to grind the bad boy boot as the monkey who made it allowd it to contact the tail light lenses 
(Yes that is my new extractor fan above the door   )
Then painting the inside of the boot and under the bonnet:
The wheels have been powder coated, the finnish is to a very high standard with no imperfections.
Here we have it, the finished article, Steve is happy with it, Tom is happy with his paint work and I'm happy with the final outcome. It has definately been worth all the hours we have put into it!

It's got no interior in it so it is suffering the same problem you have with your car. He's going to wait until the interior is fully fitted before altering the suspension.
John, the fan has to go on that side of the building, otherwise it would extract into the room next door to my workshop... The door is going to have seals put on it and I will fit an air filter eventually...

iv not got a clue about it amte just thought since it was next to an already open/airy place it wouldnt work its best. Thats all.
And dont get smoked lights, it looks so much cleaner with all white lights!

Steve has a Carisma interior trimmed in black and purple leather. A few bits will be painted up and a few other sneaky things are in the pipeline too
