Stripes look great Mark. Looks like you have made it. Best get round to Ian's to help sort his.

That doesn't disappoint does it?

Looks great and a fresh twist to the Hot Rod theme.
I think oddly those bumper stripes really adds to the shape... :)

Just got back from a little country lane scoot in my 73T/3.2, hot rod bitzas really are fun.

Have a great CLM.

Wife just told me I could have gone if I wanted to.... :(

What a result. All the hours of hard work, as well as the problems you encountered and overcame along the way,have ended with a very unique car. Hats of to you Mark, well done.
