Shell looks fantastic Darren, Barry's work is so good seems a shame to paint it!!

Fantastic, put some lacquer on it and leave it at that

Fantastic.

I have to say, that bumper alignment is remarkable. Brilliant work, and great colour choice!

Looks fab Darren - but then we knew it would! You can out OCD even me.....

Whoa, Darren, I fear you have caused permanent personality change. Barry is so pleased to see the back of your car that I think I detect the hint of a smile in that photo.

I trust that the natural order of things will be restored after a period of convalescence tinkering with some proper cars. I mean Audi A2s, obviously.
Actually I don't think he's taking a pic of your shell - it's another loving snap of the silver A2 (bottom left). Yours is in the way.

.... ain't that the truth!!!

I appreciate all the kind words chaps

Cheers,

Hello strangers, thank you for the lovely comments and most of all thank you to Darren for everything.

I have to say I am very much looking forward to seeing the shell go into paint. As we finished it in my little home workshop Darren's pics are really the first time I've really been able to see it at a reasonable distance, with arches on, bumpers fitting. I started this not being a massive fan of the wider look but must say this has really grown on me. I think it's going to be fabulous.

Lovely !!!

Amazing work Barry...Looking forward to seeing this come together with all those special details

Have you finalised colour Darren ?


Nice one !!

With a splash of green thrown into the mix, race car after all!
