Picked up my bodywork on Friday from Barnsley
Having seen a fair amount of Fibreglass work previously I'm happy to say the quality is definately there, I get the impression Alan knows his Fibreglass.
I couldn't find a single mark or blemish on it.
Just having it plonked on top of the chassis doesn't do it justice so I'll post some pictures once I have at least the nose bonnet and scuttle properly lined up! (note couldn't resist so theres a couple in my build thread)

The bonnet/nose scuttle, lines up nearlly perfectly with really tight lines due to how they are made, the bonnet will keep its shape due to the returns on the front and back edge. My CVH fits snugly under it with a cm or so gap, and don't forget this kit has a lower line look which is what I was after,

The only area for improvement would be the side panels extending to full length and getting a sharper line where they have to come in round the side of the chassis.
