Been making steady progress over the last few weeks and at last she popped outside for the first time and enjoyed a bath and a bit of evening sun

I can't find my SVA manual to check, but isn't that fog light a bit high?

Found it Min height 250mm max height 1000mm, so just ignore me.

PS Very nice car

Well done you. The car looks awesome. Out of interest how much did it cost you get the wheels done black?

Cheers,

Well its probably one of my best buys during the build, Wheels as they are now with tyres - ok not the best tyres in the world but im building to sell it so i aint bothered - £100 the lot! inclusing the new chrome nuts too!!!!

Blue was my colour of choice and i was going to have the sides painted black or even get black graphics vinyl laid on them but as i said im building to sell so the cost needed to be kept to a minimum.

Total spent to get the car on the road including re test, excluding insurance tax and registration will be less than £4500
