Well I put up a few pics etc in my build thread but I thought I would make a brief collection of my cars journey

 

Picking the car up in January 2010

Looking fab mate, you will need to take your dash clocks out again to sort your speedo needle though:whistling:

Thanks for the nice comments guys, still a few bits to go but it would be boring if it was totally finished

 

Looking fab mate, you will need to take your dash clocks out again to sort your speedo needle though:whistling:

 

I'm happy driving everywhere at 200:devil2: does it take much to alter the speedo? I guess this is common, I also need to reset the milage

The needle can often do that in transit, you need the front perspex cover off and move it back round with your finger, changing the mileage is another story but can PM you how to do it later on if you want

Holy hell that engine bay is tidy. How do you people do this stuff???!! lol. I can only dream of an engine bay like that. Really need to find me a mechanically minded friend!!!

 

Absolutely beautiful car mate, well done!

That engine bay's just crazy, Pete! :thumbup1:

 

Top work. You should feel very proud right about now!

Very nice indeed, great work and thread :cool3:.

 

Perhaps consider some swage line tape, think it might work really well all around, get yourself some 8mm wide and try it.

Thought I'd add a few pics of the finish rear bumper fitted thanks to my father as I ran out of time before I had to fly home

 

Needs some nicer plates and some new fogs and a bit of trim. Other than that done!

Thanks guys

 

If there are any ideas anyone has for a few more finishing touches, shout them out. I'm still undecided if it needs the pinstripe putting back on.

 

Si- your input here is very welcome

Whilst I think the SWB can work without a spoiler, I'd put a twinz spoiler on it. Very subtle, but finishes the boot off IMO....possibly some TwinZ skirts to help balance the rear out, but TBH, it looks mighty fine as it is. :)
