Pretty Pretty!
I might have to order some sandpaper and more paint now as your paint job puts mine to shame!

Thanks for all your kind comments they mean a lot coming from fellow builders. Keep up the good work with your builds.

Where did your mirrows come from I can't get my "bullet type" to any thing of use, Pat

Nice looking car, confirms my choice of old English white as a suitable colour, the soft shades look so good with those curves, have been looking for similar catches can I ask which ones those are on the sides ofthe bonnet and where you got them , they look tidy and secure, are the top pins for efect or necessary in your opinion.

Pat won the mirrors on ebay some time I think they were for a Mini.

jw52 · #16 13th January 2012, 20:21

Again these were another ebay buy the top pins do serve a purpose helping to keep the bonnet secure.

JW52... Hows it going, i had to go back 5 pages to find your last pics! All done? garyh

jw52 · #18 21st March 2012, 13:55

HI Gary, I have most of the car completed but as always there's usually something else that needs a final adjustment after comeing back from umpteen trips round the block as we all know these cars will always need a bit of tinkering but isn't that why we started in the first place.

How's your build progressing just had a quick look, looks like you have started welding your chassis are you near the rolling chassis stage yet?

garyh · #19 21st March 2012, 14:30

That's looking excellent, very stylish. Is it fun to drive, not too many flies in ya teeth? As i have said to others on the forum my build is very slow... have to keep everyone happy at home, so only get about 6hrs on a sunday and can't use all of my holidays up at the garage... but am almost ready to weld, i will start with a small hole, first. Keep in touch, Garyh

Well done mate....
