| Couple of pics of WIP on the Mk2
Recently we've moved garages, which has taken ages, but its all good now 
We had to move the GTE down which was a nightmare, as shes half bare metal, and the weather has been shocking of late!
Anyway got a couple of pics of her as she stands! I live in hope that she might be ready for at least one show this year (ever an optimist). The room she's in atm, was an office, we knocked it down and are in the process of making it into a spray booth.
Here shes is anyway:    |

I'll PM them to you later on as well, that mk2 cav part would be ace too, hopefully Jim can then get on with Daves Nova, as all the bits are coming in now! Quote:

As for not many about, I thought that untill recently, theres at least 4 going round the bay as it is (I like to be different) Although I know that non of them will be as tidy as mine will be once she's finished, as Jim is a major perfectionist!  | |

I'm not saying they are rare, but nice, clean ones are.
Definately best left in the hands of enthusiasts now. | |
