Stop turning us builders green with envy. They look great and are an inspiration on cold and wet nights in the garage/workshop.

Cheers Phil, Brockwells did a great job on them with a really fast turn-round time, thanks for the recommendation.
Quick question for you Phil - what filler do you use for the final finishing process before paint? Everything I've tried so far is a bit too coarse, leaving pin-hole voids here and there. |

Cars look fantastic as usual, Phil. Video is good too, especially the overtake. Awesome soundtrack, might have to replace my standard stainless back-box with something a little rortier...

Will it be road legal or pure race car?
Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing this one progress. Give me a shout if you need a hand shifting stuff, I'm only up the road after all.
As for the motor, I'm sure I've seen a 2500 bored out to 2.7 on triple webers fitted to a Spitfire when I picked up my donor. Worth researching...
Oh, and I love the idea of a black one.
