amazing how the car transformed!
looks really good imho.
I remember that you had to remove the wall on your garden to fit the car... and you GF/wife didn't know you about your project before you brought it home? what she thinks ofit now?

your right, the wife didn't know anything about it ......but she loves the car now
I've just a few bits to finish off now.......new fuel pipe, gauges to fit in the dashboard, carpet and passenger seat to re-cover.
so almost there now and she runs as sweet as a nut

I always have and always will have great admiration to anyone with the dedication to do this kind of work. I have built cars myself but never taken on such a project. a big to you mate.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
