I had very few reciepts as well for the major components i.e g/box diff and chassis tubes. I did however write a covering letter with names addresses and phone numbers of the contacts and where they came from and an explanation of why there were no receipts. I did have a v5 though.
Then I included every single other receipt no matter how small and around 24 pics at various build stages.
I can only assume you are severely lacking in receipts

Oh Cock!!

i sent my app away with lots of pics, but not a single receipt.

oh well, guess i'll pre-empt the letter from them and start to gather what i can together.

I sent 9 photos with me in one of them and one receipt (my Mac#1 invoice).

Got accepted fine!

I sent fifteen receipts and about twelve photo's showing the key milestones during the build. I also directed them to my website where my build diary is for further photos.

Not heard anything yet as I only sent in my application on Monday of last week. I must admit I'm a bit worried as I didn't have any receipts for engine or gearbox or rear axle as these were all bought for cash several years ago. I suppose the sensible thing to do is to pull together a bunch of further photo's and have them ready to print off at a moment's notice if my application is rejected.

The suspense is killing me! I think I'll phone tomorrow and see if I can find out what stage my application has reached.

Cheers,
Craig.
