Interior is a bit of a let down though.

Don't know what you mean - that's some steering wheel!

Hope the interior tidy goes well

Very nice curves from the rolling road, should drive very smoothly.

No Tacho currently so havent pushed it but really pleased with how smoothly it pulls.

Couldn't resist a few stickers for Shere on Sunday.

Looks mega Rich!

Thaks Matt,
Even the interior is looking a bit more presentable. Hopefully 10k tacho, roll bar and Repa harnesses to come but happy for now.

Can't beat a few well-chosen stickers - the car's looking great !!

Yes really good

Your project’s progressing about 10 times faster than mine Rich and most people wouldn’t even notice the difference between them at a car show - Tangerine x 2 plus some stickers!

Was this your inspiration for your S/T Rich? Looks very similar!

Thanks for the comments all,
Really happy I did the stickers, seemed to go down really well.

Matt, you're probably right about most people not noticing the difference but I think we'd agree your cars is aimed at the people that would know the difference.
I must admit Matt when I saw that picture I actually thought it was my car for a second. I haven't seen this car before though, the stickers on an amalgamation of these two cars and what stickers we're available next day from 'I say Ding Dong'!

Shere hill climb really was a special day, car drove amazingly well there although it was only 15 minutes from home. Amazed how light and agile the car feels and really pulls well.
Format at Shere is really clever and creates an amazing atmosphere having the cars moving around and seeing them going up the hill even though it's not timed. As it's a public road the speed limit is still supposedly 60 mph but it's cleverly laid out with chicanes so is effectively a series of accelerations up to 60.
I didn't watch that many cars go up but seeing the metro 6R4 going up a public road really was something.

Spoke to so really lovely people and such an incredible mix of cars.
They had obviously put a lot of effort into this grey car but I think the wheels we're a bit big, though my partner did prefer its interior to ours.

I managed three runs up the hill the first on my own then with my partner on my brother on the last one. I think we did manage to hit the Rev limiter on the last run.

Last pic is magic Rich!

That grey one is a singer by the looks of things so probably should have quite a nice interior

Your car looks great
