[Kuba]

Thank you Mick O'Malley.
I will do my best to keep updates coming regularly.

Hello.
So today I managed to squeeze few hours to further work on my dashboard. I wanted to add some depth to it so its a bit more interesting. So I came up with this.
If anyone likes that, this was a can I've used, it's an excellent fit and practically supports speedo and rev gauge by itself. I still covered entire tin in fibreglass as walls of a tin were a bit too thin
Then I painted entire dash just for fun. This will develop further in due course thanks Kuba

The build threads keep the forum going, good to see another starting ! You're obviously not afraid to get in there with the angle grinder, go for it !
Good luck with your build, check out my Formosa build project on the other page.

Hello Lucky@Lemans

Thanks. I will definitely check you formosa build thread.
I was very tempted by formosa kit myself as i think it has great proportions.

Kuba – A belated welcome to the forum.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think there has been a previous build thread for this version of the Alpha.



Until you mentioned rust, I was going to say it looked like you picked up a nice donor car.



It certainly looks like you know what you are doing, based on the nice job you’ve done on the dash.



Where abouts (roughly) are you based?

I’m near Wembley and might be able to swing by and say hello at some point.
(After Covid restrictions are lifted and I’ve got my car back on the road. )

Good luck,

Paul.

Thank you so much Paul for warm welcome.
Re knowing what I'm doing...I'm not so sure about that but i have lots of ideas, only time will tell if i can execute them correctly.
I have to mention that it was your build who got me eventually started. I have read through your build thread over Christmas period and I loved every minute of it. This brings me to your your other "garage" mention it was exactly what I thought when I've been reading your thread. I basically had no excuse not to start so I did.
I am in south west London near Croydon and you are welcome to visit when time allows.
Once again thanks and later i would be posting some updates as I couldn't resist to "pop in" to a garage today.
