Hi all some of you may remember this   Well I did it originally purple and gold but the sun turned the gold to chrome and I hated that sooo, I thought I would try and give it a second chance. It's going (if my skills are up to it) get this in it   It means a LOT of work (gearbox tunnel to say the least) Encase anyone has not seen this beast before on top is a 1/32 humber snipe I'm working on.  |

Hi all been messing about with wheels just can't decide does this look ridiculous   I really like the small wheels at the front but the rear (although bigger) I think don't look right in the wheel arches (of course I could remove the wheel arches) Or if I mix wheel rims what about this  Or keeping the same rims (Still smaller at the front)  There is surprisingly very little difference on ground clearance at the front considering how much bigger these wheels are  |

Hi all I'm pretty crap at this sort of thing I want to change the shape of the cars roof first I thought of removing the roof completely and cutting the door pillars to level with the top of the doors.   As you can see I can't do that as the top hinge for the doors is incorporated in the door pillars, then I thought of cutting the rear pillar off level with the base of the rear window but I can't do that as there will be an ugly step at the back, what should I do.  |

Hi all well I'm back off my hols and after a huge amount of hacking and jiggling I managed to make the interior fit. I changed the centre pillar from leather to wood I like the contrast between the leather and the wood (I think it looks more luxurious) Still got the dash to do, thinking of adding rev counter and oil pressure gauge, wondering if I should add a more modern Speedo.     |
