Sorry about my earlier post about scuttle shake, I was referring to the bracing in the door area and I meant that I don't think this car will shake and rattle like the Spitfires I've owned. Love the look of this car, looking forward to seeing it at some point this year. :-)

Welcome to the forum Yvon,

I love this picture:



I am posting some other pictures that may help your build.

Is that a Pontiac behind the A352?
