thanks for the comments.

The seats are Tiger's Pad ones, they are fairly comfortable, but not been in them long enough to find out how good

Very smart! Painted? Otherwise what have you done with the mould lines at the bottom of the scuttle?

Looking good. Did you have to butcher the bonnet much to fit? I have the zetec bonnet and had to chop away loads to get it to fit the nose.!

edspurrier - i've left them unpainted at the mo

nick205 - The wheels are just some old Dezent ones, i stripped them had the faces polished and sprayed the rest black.

i haven't touched any flash lines yet, as i've seen the thickness of the gel coat in places and a little bit nervous to scrap them back.


davefj - The bonnet was a nightmare trying to get an even gap on the sides as they don't reach enough, i had to chop loads out of the bulge and i'm still not happy with it, still trying to decide how to put on my last dzus on the bulge.

Looking good.
So how far are you from finishing?
I'd like to be finished in time for the Exeter show in November but maybe tight with respect to getting SVA'd and registered by then.
Seeing as you're in Weston-Super-Mare, Are you signed up to the South West Tiger Owners Club at http://www.swtoc.co.uk ?

well Andrew, got a few small jobs to do, boot cover, grill fit dash finally. set-up geometry. The biggest part is to tune the megasquirt.

Funny you should mention SVA had a phone call from them on the answer phone wanting to arrange the date. I'm trying to get it al legal for Exeter too. I'll be putting the windscreen on later after the test to get it on the road in time

I've not joined the club yet probably do that soon too
