Now, i just need to refurbish the other 3 wheels, get an aeroscreen on there, repaint the aluminium rear-wing protection plate..... the list goes on
and on.... ![](/images//smilies/bigsmile.gif)

That's a very pretty car - I do like the colour scheme even if it is a little Man U!!
Well done.

Very nice. Like the black wheels.
Its great to see the std of builds is improving all of the time. Long gone are the dark days of the dodgy kits. These cars should be considered as
replicas, or one off prototypes etc. Kit just doesnt sound good enough any more. There are some people on this site with some fantastic skills.

What do you think?
Thanks for the nice replies!
What do you guys think, should i go aeroscreen (a perspex-type thingy) or full windscreen? At the mo, the weight of a screen, wipers and washer is
keeping me from a full-on screen....

Try an aeroscreen first. Its cheaper and easy. If no good then you can change later.
Try a car with a screen before outlaying the cash - they are not always better.

Looks awesome Sebastiaan! Seriously considering a two tone paint scheme now. It seems to make the car look lower or something...
Looks real nice though!

Gefeliciteerd Sebastiaan! Ik ben jaloers!
Is it a gelcoat color red? It looks so "deep"! Nice!

Mave,
The red is a standard MK gelcoat. Looks nice enough when out in the evening sun, but i think that over time, the whole car will be painted (probably
black or silver). The sidepanels are homemade from Dibond (a sandwich panel consisting of two layers of ali sheet and a plastic core in between. Light
and very stiff), and are painted.
How are you getting along with your Indy? solved the inlet manifold problems yet?
Cheers,
Sebastiaan

Hope you don't mind Seb?
I used a picture from your album to illustrate a possible colour choice for my car on my website... Shown here -

Hope that's okay?

Not to worry Sebastiaan.
I have been told by Mk Sportscars that I'm not allowed to use any pictures of any of their cars on my website...
Ta anyway and good luck with the rest of the build.
Chris.
