I haven't posted for a while - but I haven't been idle! - plugging away with the bodywork.

Front end is progressing - but getting the details added is taking time, but if a jobs worth doing……

Rear boat-end is coming together, formed in flexi-ply, first attempt in thin ply felt to strained.

Trying to keep things moving forward!

Nice looking body, the car that is. Do you have access to pedals master cylinder steering etc?

Cheers Nick

Hi Nick, good point, Yep! the body overall is in three sections and the forward section the bonnet top and side panels are all remove, depending on how much access is needed. The boat tail is a similar concept. But finishing is taking time! All the best Ian.
