I like mine shiny. After all it is a fake. The Patina will build ad the car ages anyway, the chrome is beginning to put slightly anyway. Allis fair in love and cars!

A few recent pics: I cannot lock the car with the key as the lock barrel is deleted when installing the mini handles, central-locking only. I think the key can lock the car without setting the alarm but I need to look up how? Thanks for the input on the alarm.

A quick update on "The Beastie". Overheating Due to overheating issues (header tank exploded during MOT - EEK!), caused by not being able to get the electric fans to switch correctly. I have re-fitted the viscous fan set-up. Whilst I was in there changing the header tank and fan, I tidied up...

A guy called Birdie by any chance, he was active on ebay some time ago, bloody crook!

Mine is as solid as a rock on the road, no rattles or squeaks. Having said that, I am fanatical about things fitting properly and have a tendency to over-engineer. Rattles and weird noises are a big no-no for me (think people clicking pens - I want to break their fingers). Go for the build.

Bit larger than a shed, but same principle. A bit of polythene dust-sheet and tape to line everything and a bloody massive fan.

Steve will help you out with a kit and have a read of both my builds (links in my signature) which may provide some useful info. Good luck.

Sorry Oskar, I do not understand what you are asking me about!

Thanks All

Just keep posting your build and questions, everything else will come out in the wash!

The rake-back looks much better than standard. Great idea.

Busted!

250SWB Cabriolet is prettier!
