Nice one cnt wait to see the finished car!
I have a book built chassis... and then bought my BMW for a donor and have decided to keep the independant suspension so need to re design the rear end and also planning completly different body shaping to make it all the more unique

Suspect the person you are looking for may be Matt from old Luego? Cant remember what he trades under , he is likely to be on holiday until after the new year. If it is him his welding is first class.
