My 3 year effort

It's almost 3 years since I started stripping my donor. I am very pleased with the end result and have enjoyed every part of the build.

Here are some pics i took last night. It does need a big yellow or orange stripe down the bonnet I think.
I like the dash with it's matt black looks.
Just a jobs left to do now.

Still waiting for Mark/Colin to send the cycle wing brackets!!!

Why do they call Port Harcourt "The Garden City"?...... Becauase they can't spell Stramash.

That looks really good Keithy. Like it a lot.

After SVA you could go mad with some vinyl. Really easy to do something different on the car.

Have you tried running it on Laphroig or Acetone yet?

Thanks for the comments.

The bogg's ZZR carbs work great with the MJ, although I will be getting the emissions checked tomorrow night, so might have to play with the 4 adjusting screws. Another thing to learn.

The car will be drinking petrol, the laphroiag is for me alone!

I got the tunnel trim from MAC#1 along with the kit, it's called hockey stick trim.

I think two gloss black stripes would look great.

I know where you can get some from

STRIPES LINKY

Not sure that would work though on a dark green (BRG?) car
