quick update, I have been thinking of the rat-cammo look......
OK I got carried away with the guide coat! ( i have to put in the bonnet formers/strengtheners yet, hence the bottom edges still stick out.)
A couple of the detail shots....
I have made mould seats for the rear lights so they look more factory fitted
and the same for the number plate light...
and I have also moulded in the filler neck. This is the standard Vitesse cap and filler neck from the Vitesse tank, and adapted by means of an exhaust pipe reducer with some washers welded on and then the lot bonded on. It will be covered with a standard Mini Aston cap, so the locking cap will be hidden. The actual filler tube is on a flexible pipe to the tank and has a rubber seal between the bonded part, so it will move without cracking the fibreglass! (so the theory goes...)
oh and I started on the sill closing plates....
