Re: My new project.........
thanks Tom, that's exactly what I'm trying to do here make something that's not been seen before, but the problem is
because they're so different it's hard to judge the reaction, maybe people are being polite and just humouring me!

Not at all. Can't wait to see the finished profile when the bumpers are on and it's sitting at the correct height.Mike wrote:maybe people are being polite and just humouring me!

Re: My new project.........
Kindly get it fully rebuilt Mike, we'll then take a look and let you know if you need to revise the arch profiles, strip it to a bare shell and start again.Mike wrote:because they're so different it's hard to judge the reaction

I think I would have to get an A level in 'Patience Control' to keep my head over this project.
We will all be much the richer when it is done and over in Italy...with Elford in the hot seat.
What a motor!
