Andy's asked me if I can post this recent picture of his car, its nearly at the point of IVA and I'm sure he'll be adding some of the
finer details of his pride and joy in a sec.
Over to you Andy!
Cheers
Rich
Looks very nice. There are a few Roadster's that are nearly done and looking really nice.
Very nice
Sorry but i don't think it will pass with the front wings they look to high at the rear
Jacko
I agree, think they are suppose to be a certain height off the floor?
Nice looking car anyway
I think they maybe just resting on the front wheels, I sure Andy will be along soon!
Cheers
Rich
Thanks Rich, you,re a star , owe you a beer at stoneleigh
The photo is a recent pic, tho things have progressed alittle further now,
In this pic the front wings aren,t actually attached as i was waiting for the paint to dry on my wing stays hanging in the garage
The car now has the rear lights, all 3 mirrors fitted,
to do list is getting shorter at last....
to do list...
fit nose mesh,
make & fit boot lid
adust & set wheel alignment & camber
tidy up the wiring in the engine bay
cover the dash in vinyl...
tbh, getting to the point where I can,t think of much else that needs doing
cheers
andy
ps...I can build a car but can,t post a photo
I thought that the wings had to cover the tyre when looking from above.
Nice looking build, what are the wheels from?

Andy,
I think the wheels are quite unusual on a kit, I really like the effect they give.

Thanks for your kind words Andy & Tipster
I,ll be totally honest & say my car has been built on an extremely tight budget, with the thought that once it was on the road I,ll be updating it
on a "Rolling on the road" type of development.
I,d like to say that I couldn,t have built the car without the great help from the members of the Haynes & LCB forums, thanks everyone
maybe i,m a big softie....but I still look at the car in slight disbelief, realising that it was built from scratch, chassis included, in that small
garage, & that it works
Just the big IVA hurdle to get over now
cheers
andy
Looking nice, loving those wheels.
Looking good Andy
Thanks Chris & KJ
I,m quite surprised at the nice comments about the wheels I,ve used,
I,ve tried to build my car as the title of the book suggests "on a budget" ( I,m sure thats to please the "wives" & the
wheels came along at the right price.
cheers

I like the wheels because they are a refreshing change from all the drab, dark and dismal black ones that seem so popular.........
