I had to go and read the entire post again. Fantastic stuff V8EK4us. :D :D :D :D

You got your car about a month before me, but you've done 10 times more work. And some pretty amazing stuff. 8) 8) 8)

If your focused, I'm sure you'll make the Nationals this year. I think you've done all the hard stuff, just the finishing that can take a bit of time. As Malcolm said, just stick to your plan to get it finished in time. We always see extra things, but they can be done later on.

Keep up the great work, absolutely awesome. :D :D :D :D 8) 8) 8) 8)

PS, Love your choice in music too................. 8) 8) 8) 8)

When it's finished I reckon it'll be worth the airline ticket to Darwin just to see it.
The only reason for time is so everything dosen't happen at once.
If Macca's home delivered there'd be one less drunk on the road.

If your traveling through Brisbane on your way to the Nationals, you'll have to let us know. Would love to have a look in real life when it's finished. :D :D :D :D :D 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Trev......the Entry is on it's way :wink: :D :D

I stripped out the aircon controls from the mounting panel that came with it and made a alloy plate up then had it engraved, I also fitted 2 switches to isolate the Line Lock and the Trans Brake. I then painted it black, sanded of the excess and polished it which just left the engraving black, pretty happy with the end result.
