That looks so good that I wouldn't put the body on. LOL

The Tate would pay one of those flouncy artists millions for something as beautiful as that

It is almost porn to a fellow Wedger!!

Well done and look forward to the finished item

Cheers

+1 for the looking good and the headers. Speaking of the headers, did you make them yourself? Any pics showing them in more detail?

It's a thing of beauty that is!

Echoing the sentiments above, you should have parked it in a gallery or the town hall foyer for a week.

I wish I could do all this stuff - talented lot you chaps.

I agree with the Atom look. My chassis is now ready having just been modified, blasted and powder coated. With the roll bar though, it looks more suitable for grass track racing.rolleyes
