Talking Sneak preview

Woke up this morning, the sun was shining & was looking like it was going to be a really nice day.

Well I could not resist the temptation any longer .... It was time for the bodywork to have a coming out party, been dagging to have a play with it ever since Handy Andy bought it down to me, earlier this year

Here's a little teaser for you.



I have a load of other more important bit's of the build to do but as they say, a change is as good as a rest.

Promise it will not be too much longer before I post some better pictures but as usual, the workshop is in chaos, it would be hard to tell the build from the mess

A big thank you must go to Spud at Saturn for making my colour choice possible & a huge thank you to Handy Andy for the personal delivery.

Oh well, I guess it's back onto the more important stuff tomorrow .... I could put the seat's in though !!??

Hounds hydraulics Ronnie !!!, I think someone mentioned that Mr IVA mentioned flat washers to be fitted to "spread the load" hence the mention.

Talking Ok, I might as well

Yes Andy, I think I will be made up when It all comes together

Here's a couple more that are not too bad.

From the front



Looking from the rear



As you can see, I still have align the bonnet correctly but that can wait for a while.

Really need to get on with some of the more important stuff
