He made up his own swallowtail rear panel, so he has butchered up an original campaign to make a fake swallowtail....

It looks nothing like the real swallotail panels so a bit pointless in my oppinion and the shortened rear beam makes the car look strange but overall its a really nice mk1 and you can see the amount of work thats gone into it.

Yea I think some of the lines he used for the swallow panel are a bit too sharp and long.
Here we are critisising it, yet, its his car, and he's put in a truck load of work! and obviously it's a realy attention grabber! I only hope that I can build a mk 1 to that level one day!
Might be a re-post...
I need more pics of this, anyone?
