very nice alex,

keep it up

Nice work as always Alex.

Care to send me some specs on your frame you made up to sit the shell on? need to make one up and yours looks good :)

made it on site under the car,was a mission, basically joined 2 H frames together(1 for the front ,which sits on the front mounts and one for the rear , which bolts up to the trailing arm mounts) the front wheels are straight and heavy rating (so fitting of engine is possible)and swivel rear wheels to take up the slack and aid steering

Great work Al, I want to come have a look at your handy work again :)

have been kicking goals

Wow, that last pic speaks volumes about your attention to detail, Alex. One mahoosive airscoop wrapped in carbon fibre no less and hooked up to the cross bar between the headlight enclosures (if I'm not mistaken) makes for a pretty sexy looking engine bay! I've seen a few Mk1 engine bays and this will be truly one of a kind. Can't wait to see what your grill's going to look like too. Amazing, patient work there.

Alex,
The work you do is amazing mate.

It is coming along very well.

I like you carbon fibre theme. Very good looking.

Nice photos too.

Cheers,

Gordan

Awesome work as usual Al. Good to see you back into it.
