Wheels look really good.
Bit of an odd one but what size are your headlights?
Tidy looking build...
Do all your SVA-type stuff and stick some closeups in the SVA/Legal section, that way people can offer recent/relevant advice. There are a few things
to point out ATM, but they are stuff you prob already know...
All the best and good luck on the 24th
Steve
looking good, best of luck at sva
Very nice but your bonnet is a different shade of blue to the rest of your car 
who's body work are you using as i like the proportions.
Nice
Proper size headlights too!!!
F'ing big wheels/tyres though!!
Those front indicators do not look to fall within the 400mm from outer edge. Or maybe they are... can't tell.
Steve
And don't forget nut covers on the top harness bolts.
Looks nice though.
Pat...
thanks for the comments guys
TimC - A dirty mind is all it takes
SyKaTurbo - The headlights are 7"
worX- wat things have you spotted....just incase we've missed anything
MikeR - the body work is all Mk...the wings nose & scuttle are very early moulds tho....ive had the car over 4 years
the bonnet and rear panel are newer Mk moulds...hense the different colours
BenB - The wheels are a tad on the big size.....and also a bit to heavy for my liking.....but they were donated by a friend to save me forkin out for
new wheels and tyres on an already tight budget this month.
Hellfire - we checked and they are within the 400mm.
thanks again for the kinds comments

Was good meeting you the other night. Did you get the misfire sorted? Best of look with the SVA and I look forwarded to going for some blats with
you, once I get the alternator back
BTW don't forget to change the steering post SVA

Hi again Patrick,
It is hard to tell from your phots but the first couple of things that I noticed are:
Grille
Center Mirror
Indicators
Front suspension
grille - Can't tell tfrom the photos, but is it made from round bar? If not, it may need some wiring conduit placed so "he" can't
get his stainless ball into it.
Center mirror - looks like it would fail on exterior projections
Indicators, As Hellfire said they do look alittle close to fitting within the furthest ecterior projection (often the REAR arches)
ALL your front suspension needs to ne given the SVA treatment...
Obviously, all the above is based on your relatively small photos and I could be (VERY) wrong on them all, or have mentioned stuff that you already
know about!
So, all the best,
Steve
Best of luck for today and dying to know how you got on !!
