Do like the rear trimming, very good idea and looks very well done. Details like this make all the difference.

I've had the boot trimmed/carpeted out as well. I'm back home 1st Sept and have 3 people due to view it so hopefully it will sell and I can order a Kobra kit!

Danny, how did you get on? did the people you had lined up bite your hand off? did you get the other pictures done of the new boot lining and completed H gate?

It's a great looking car and if it weren't for the fact I would miss the pleasure/pain of building it for myself I would be certainly be interested.

The side repeators you have can I ask where did you get them from?

Thanks, Ian

I got the side repeaters from ebay. They where a small fortune but i think worth it! I think they were listed as maseratti side repeaters.

Nightshift this week. In my opinion nightshift is for either sleeping or doing your own little jobs...

Danny can I ask what square lights you used? are they just hooked up as fog lights? apologies for the question I just can't see it in the thread or the pictures.

Thanks, Ian

Ian, the square 1s at the bottom are just reflectors. my fog light is hidden out the way, mounted just underneith on a hinge, it got hinged down for the MOT and hinged up ever since! I never botherd with a reverse light either as its not an MOT requirement.
