I was wondering today if you have a spare bonnet with a hole cut in it already painted :twisted:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Wayyyy better than any American Rodder project.
I suggest you put the build on CD; -$10 each will pay your fuel bill!
Can't wait to see in some mags too. it's been an amazing ride for us all.
This would have been a great video story.

It looks AWESOME! It has been great getting on here every night to see where you are up to and wondering wether its gonna get done in time for the nationals. Good luck with the trip down and I am hoping to see it in the flesh next Sunday(if all goes according to plan from my end). Just one question.........Whats the next project??? :) , I mean what are we all gonna do, now that this has been finished????
I'd rather drive something made of metal, not plastic!

Id'e be interested to see the final bill. I hope that doesn't scare you just curious to see what all the material was worth.

Take it nice and slow when towing that beauty its a loooooong way!

Anyway time to enjoy and I'm sorry I cant make it either would be very nice to see.

Regards Greg
