Finally got my roadster down onto 4 wheels today! :) It seems as though its taken forever to get this far, but a personal milestone for me.
The sharper eyed will notice this isn't quite a Haynes roadster - the chassis started life as a locost live axle but I chopped off the back end and replaced it with an IRS one. Off for a beer or 2 now. Chris

Excellent looking build, well done.
I will be treating myself to a few beers when I get to this stage as well!:D

looks great mate, i like the wheels. How long have you been building for? It seems the further on one gets, the longer jobs start to take, its taken me all day today to make one wingstay!

Coming up to 2 years to get this far. The wheels are std Focus alloys - the offset may not be 100% perfect and I still need to find some 12" min. wide rear arches to cover them.
