Retropower!! web page a bit further on now!
www.retropower.co.uk, our company, is now a little, if not a lot, more detailed, but worth a glance.
The virtual tour bit is coming off as i think its crap, and we'll just have some still shots! some good pics of previous resto jobs though!
The capri 2.8i is nearing completion and will be up for sale soon. We will be starting the asking at £6000, and see where we get!

Nat, Put http:// in front of your web address each time you type it, that way people can just click on the link that it creates and go straight to
it!

Sweet website guys 
If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.

Quality!
Just a few things... All clickable links should really have a hover over effect so that users know that its a button as soon as they drift over
it... its not hard to do in your stylesheet!
There is no "Home" button on the left hand side menu, which might be useful!.
The blue links on the homepage...... can they not be moved into the "projects and services" section on the left?
The usual convention is to keep 1 menu system inplace, having the one on the left and the one in the middle of the homepage is confusing...
By all means have some small thumbnails of the serices/project on the homepage that link to the "projects and services" page on the
left...
Dont know if any of that is any help!

I'd change the comment so it doesn't look like the fiat space frame is finished - might worry people that's all there is to it.

It is indeed the blasting shed! Hopefully we will also have a blast cabinet soon, but the problem with those is even the really big ones won't
accomodate a full axle or subframe, where the shed will.
Not the most pleasant place to be, but with lighting, an airfed mask and full cape its not too bad in there. Blasted 5 alloys on sat morning ready for
paint and only had to refill the blaster once, it holds 20kg of steel shot which lasts about 20 mins (no idea on kg of aluminium oxide which we use on
wheels etc)
Reminds me, need to order another 50kg of aluminium oxide! Only pain in the bum is cleaning up when changing abrasives, as we use glass bead, steel
grit and al oxide now, as they are all good at different things!
Also need a proper air main into the shed really, 10mm airline is a bit too restrictive for the blaster.
How do i hide from the boss Mike!!!
I'm not that schizophrenic!!!
