Managed to get a day on the car this week and have made a couple of panels and started a third so moving on if not all that fast, but learning all the way especially on the English wheelAttachment 5474

Respect!

Thanks for the kind words just hope my vision is not more than I can do.

In any build there are low points and even despair, but they will be overcome.
Keep at it , but sometimes just walk away and do something else for a while. Build a plastic aeroplane or boat then come back refreshed. If we weren't mad we wouldn't be here.

Spot-On!

Astounding to be able to visualise then deliver such tidy design.

Thanks can see things in my head but just cant get it down on paper

coming along nicely. Good work!

Looking good!

Wet weekend so got a good lot of hours on the car after putting up shelves for my daughter. Good brownie points so have managed to get six panels fitted to one side of the car, and quite pleased with the results for a change. still four more on that side but I think I will get the other side up to the same stage before I tackle them. Think I might have to coat the steel with some oil as a light surface rust has started to appear must be the weather. Attachment 5574

Fantastic! Really looking good.

Thanks I think it is starting to come together but still a long way to go

Really is looking good a real classic.

I know I said I would get the other side up to the same stage but had a go at one of the curved roof corners this week. So spent a total of five hours with a sand bag and mallet to form the curve not quite there yet but getting there.Attachment 5600
