Hi Paul, Unfortunately nothing has been done to it as I am doing a lot of work on my Mum’s house and also trying to prepare our house for sale. We have moved into my Mum’s house now and I’m widening the drive so we can get our 3 cars off the street as my Wife’s Chrysler Voyager got covered in salt every time the Council gritter passed by. With any luck we won’t have any more frost, snow or ice! My two cars are both on the drive and the Fiorano body parts are in the garage with some of my motorbikes. It’s all a bit snug in there! Do you have any plans for yours?

Ahh, ok, hopefully you might get round to it at some point.
I really want to change the nose of mine still,
I'm hoping that mick can do me a spare front end at some point to experiment on.... fingers crossed

I’m with you there, I think that the front end is the weakest part of the car styling wise ad also it would be more practical if the front end could be removed. It would make it easier to get an engine in and out too.

Cut it, make a fiberglass flange around the inside of the bonnet and refit the nose. Make your cut on center of a tape line so as not to harm the paint.
