It would be nice to get it running soon - at least before the summer ends as it's not a practical winter car! Not much to do - just reassembly and some fettling (famous last words). Sam's car is well special, nice to see something so different. There's plenty of interesting Speedster eye candy to be had in THIS Pelican thread.

 

woolly hat and a scarf for the crisp winter outings - you'll be fine!

 

some nice speedsters on the link :)

To say that I'm rather pleased with it would be an understatement.

 

OH MY GOD YES. That looks brilliant Jezza. That's going to go like sh*t of a stick with your whizzy 3.0 litre in it.

 

Very jealous :signs118:

:ani_clapping: That is just superb! What a fantastic way to blast around in the sun... assuming we get some more soon.

I really hope to see it in the metal at an event this year but in the meantime, consider my hat well & truly doffed in your direction

 

 

 

 

 

 

One tiny detail in those pics which jars slightly - the silencer hanger could use some paint... :)

Jeremy that is lovely and so you should be pleased.

 

Just the right mix of chrome and black to go with the white. The mirrors turned out really well with the white plinths.

 

What wheels are you using, Minilites of Fuchs or something else?

Blimey, you literally could eat you dinner off that, what a lovely job all round. Congratulations to all who worked on it.

 

I'd be too terrified to take it out in case it got dirty!
