Bodywork progress finally

Hi not posted on here for quite a while been busy beavering away trying to get the boot cover finished and the front arches done and painted. Got them in colour few days ago and then fitted them on well pleased now. Just gotta finish the nose-cone and mould the bonnet now(bonnet mould now finally done what a mission lol). Hoping to be going for IVA about mid July all going well.









Cheers

I like the union jack look. What colour are you going to put on the log book?

Are those TSW Venom wheels i see? Old skool!!!

Cheers guys for the comments it makes it all seem more worthwhile, don't no what colour to put on the logbook but if i get to that stage they can put whatever they want on it lol. They are TSW s i was just using them as slave wheels really but must admit they have grown on me now and am thinking of getting them refurbed.

Lets hope devolution doesn't happen before IVA, you will have to remove the blue.
