Thats one of the first things I'll be checking when it comes back from the painters Rory
But as yet Welby hasn't recieved his seat and brackets yet
And I'm still waiting on a truck full of goodies for my shop to complete the task

Speaking of brakes,

They are all going back in a box to be sent back to Harrop for some minor mods.

Again. :furious:

Don't get me started........... :<_<:

Your being alittle too kind to them calling it minor

3 boxes back for the second time
See if they can get it right this time

Not sure what you mean mate, says the guards are cut, now it's ready for exterior paint.......unless you mean the holes Datto's talking about, in which case wont be a huge deal.


Looking really good Welby, can't wait to see the finished product!!

And say gday to BJ for me, hope he's going to pull up alright, we're not going to have to nickname him stubsy now or anything are we?

Dave

Thanks all.

Tim. Holes for the pedal box, mounting holes for the seats etc, minor stuff really.
Which is why we haven't waited for them. Time is now dictating the build.

MRNOS. I don't think we need to discuss the perversions of a few.....

Dave, thanks mate, i'll pass it on to the big klutz. Stumpy , i like that...
I called into the hospital to drop off some mags, he's sitting up in bed, just come out of surgery so he's groggy, got an oxy mask on his face, his hands are bound up like oven mits, and he's trying to pick his mobile phone up...

Hahahaha funny as f@#$k.

Sorry the pics are so dark, i'll get some more this week in the sunlight. The satin black has come up really well though.

Next time someone comments on how bright mine is I'll refer them on for a look at yours. Should see you coming. One fine example of a car from the word go.
