First Drive

[Guest rhetorical-oracle]

Well did all the DVLA stuff yesterday, and now it's all taxed and registered. Started peeing down to the exact second that I got it home, so had to rush it off the trailer and back into the garage.

 

Took it up to my folks house today to give my dad the first ride as a passenger.

 

 

Still grining now.

Are your extensions that cover the wishbone brackets attached to the body or moulded into the nosecone?

[Guest rhetorical-oracle]

Thanks all.

 

Col. More photos (taken prior to yesterdays registration).

Joel.

 

The covers are made from .7mm stainless sheet, which has been bent into shape with tabs at the edge which are screwed into the body. The nosecone then fits over the tabs to hide them. Sprayed them to suit the colour of the GRP and put edge trim around the edges.

Wow - speachless !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Guest hypermick]

Splendid job Phil,. looks an absolute treat, obviously lovingly built!.

 

The rear one piece arches,. are they RH supplied or did you get them elsewhere ?

 

Ive never fancied the stainless with the GRP outers which Ive got in my kit and would rather go with your style.

Great Photo's Phill.....Thank you. "Concourse de Elegance" springs to mind!!

Looks like a top build and finish!! I've seen some good lookers but

that is up there amongst the best of em!

Well done, you must be very proud!!!

Another great example of putting a personal stamp on the build.

Cheers
