Seriously though Darren, it looks fantastic - another painstakingly-researched project having reached a major landmark.

Without him this project would have horribly wrong long ago and he's worked tirelessly to achieve a stunning RS shell....I honestly don't think he could have done any better, the man is genius! 8)

With the shell now looking exactly like the six RHD cars that rolled out of the factory in 74 I couldn't be happier.

Now for some colour! :cheers:
