"on the road by easter"

 

I love optimistic people,

hmm ok i was expecting it to be alittle further on than what it is!! shall get a couple of pics up at weekend

didnt mean to dampen you're spirits, but Rhoods normally take a lot longer to build than most other kits,

But you have come to the right place, any questions will soon be answered (usally several different ways) and soon have you back in the garage.

As Jim said, we will probably have a ride down and introduce ourselves in the near future, just have plenty of cups ready.

Phew your not wrong, mine took 4 years 4 months to build, about 2 years 4 months longer than i thought it would, but its on the road now .STu205 if you get anywhere near as much enjoyment out of it as i have from mine youll love it.

welcome to the hoody world, you dont have to be mental but if you are youll fit right in.

[Guest stu205]

Cheers guys nice to be in a club where thers people local to me! im gonna have a proper look at it at week end cause so far ive only seen it in the dark! but it has been running at one point with all the pannels on but then was striped so fingers crossed it will be months not years even if it is building its half the fun and my 205 should keep up with you lot till then as for the mental bit...........

[Guest stu205]

ok ok after actualy seeing it maybe next easter!! still should be a laugh all the body pannels are there all drilled ready to fit but i think ill go for a diferent colour not too keen on rust red

You could buy a stainless steel panel set of rh, could save the hassle of painting etc.

[Guest stu205]

i looked at that but in all honesty im not sure if i like the stainless look might have it the same blue as my pug might have too see one in the flesh first to decide

[Guest irishbob]

i am never lost ,i know exactaly where i am its just i am not with everyone else. however who's to say ,they could be lost and i am in the right place .

[Guest stu205]

thats true anyway thought half the fun was driving these things if you go the fastest route it spoils the fun!

[Guest daveg]

could save the hassle of painting etc.

:gdit: jeez your're not wrong there...

 

not sure if i like the stainless look

then paint it!

 

It would be easier than preparing those rusty panels...I should know I had to do it

 

Also, when you drill the painted panels you will cause rust

 

If you get that 'one thee road' next easter you deserve a prize

PS It would also be cheaper...have you seen the price of paint :boohoo:
