    Looks good Scotty!

    Maybe if you do several pieces it will work out cheaper for the chrome?

    Thanks Aussie, maybe i should just finish welding it all and put out in the rain to get it to rust up instead of paint.

    Things are going well,i got the radiator done, the dash,rear tannou,steering wheel,gear stick,handbrake and seats done on wednsday thursday nite.Tonite friday i got the engine block done and the windscreen.
