nice sound, love the wheels.
Are the rear arches being spaced out differently? Look a bit big IMO, but it might be a style thing.

Thanks RK
I keep a spreadsheet of what my 'Locost' Viento has cost me, but I daren't look too often. Once this one is done I may build a book
Locost properly just to atone for my sins..........

Hi Dangle_kt
I was worried about the rear wheels not filling the arches, but as I get more kit on the car it settles down and they centralise more into where I
visualise them being. I may space them out and/or drop the suspension once on the road, not decided yet !

If your not far from Shefford, then you can't be 'that' far from me.
Looks good and sounds great, keep it going.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
