Mate, fair play for all the effort put into it! From the front I like it, the pic from the back I'm not so keen on but I do like the wheels! What's the interior like?
Obviously you've put a lot of time effort and money into this, fair play!

the front of the car is not finished yet it will be having the bonnet smoothed and painted the same as the rest of the car thinking of some extra art to be put on the car but have not made up my mind.
the interior is going through a re make at the moment, it curently has 4 seats made by cobra, images will be in the thread and the old boot build in the earlier images, is going to be taken out and changed with some new door panels in construction as well.
