If it was Sladey's he'd already have 2000 miles on it! :D

Keith - this car looks fantastic - the detail is top notch and it all looks like a very well sorted package. You must be so pleased with it, it has fought you a couple of times hasn't it....

Trust me, it's a driver, not a car to be examined to too closely. Don't start thinking 'Nick Moss', 'Canford Classics' – or Darren65 :lol:. Think more 'get me from A to B with a smile on my face'...

I'd love to do it all over again, with more time, more money and a garage of my own. :roll:

If anyone would like me to design a truly unique outlaw for them, I have some ideas for a car I'd love to build, but never will... 8)

Looking cool, the colour is great.

Will this make it to Le Mans thus year?

Kind regards

I wish... unless I can get them to postpone it until about September! (Classics at the Castle is my target...).

Thanks for the encouraging words, everyone. :)

I think you're selling yourself short Mr Seume……your car looks 'right' in so many ways! 8)

You've got your priorities damn right…....your car along with Sladey's and Chris Jury's are some of the coolest Hot Rods around and show that you don't have to be throwing £80K at a project to build a really cool driver.

Long live determination, creativity and a desire to get out on the road……..trumps a cheque book any day! :wink:

Awesome project, most excellent Hot Rod! 8)

What would you do differently? You have a pretty cool car now!
