If you can post another picture of the car without the battery drill and crawler in shot I will make that my wallpaper on my PC.
Best regards

Hi
In case anyone thinks I might be sitting on the fence here. . . . That is the best looking car I have seen in a very long time, IM(not very)HO, the stance is spot on, the colour works very well with the curves of the panels it has enough chrome to be striking without being tacky the wheels are just right, the panel fit is excellent, how you got a set of British made panels to line up that well astounds me it just looks brilliant, sorry did i mention I rather like it!
Best regards
Mike

Thanks very much for your kind words. However, i'm not 100% happy with door gaps (long story) - my other V8 minor has almost perfect (for a minor) door gaps.
Considering that this car has over the years been smashed, vandalised and generally well thrashed (I've had it since 1972) it is probably as good as it can be.
I'll post up further pics of the build.

I agree with the Kiwiman !!!
Get yourself a proper set of pictures taken outside with some nice background. Hi rez images at least 4-5 meg and spend £20 odd at Vistaprint online for an A2 poster for your workshop or wall or preferably the front room at home
Its lovely mate. Very well done

That's a hell of a workshop ! Minor is looking fantastic, red carpet is a very nice touch. It would never stay that clean in my garage lol

ooft that is amazing, love it. That colour is similar to the one I'm planning for the MG, albeit a wee bit darker.
