    2 Months & 2 days To Make.
    Thanks For sticking with me guys.
    Yes you can all go for a spin in it.
    no worries.
    Yes John,I can understand that you feel like it is part your car
    & I will mark a little spot on it for you and of coarse a few other faithfull
    followers.(of this Thread)
    It has been a long trip.I spent more time fixing mistakes and working out how to do it,than time actually doing it.Does that sound right?
    The plans are great,but no instructions at all.Just sizes of timber.
    I loved working it out and now that I have half a clue----I wonder what I waisted all
    the time on
    I was going to take some shots outside without the flash today.
    Weather way too hot for me ,so will try tomorrow.
    Once again,Thanks guys.I may have stopped sometimes if no one was following it.

    Hey Aussie,,,, fantastic result. I haven't had any internet for awhile so I haven't been able to keep up with your progress but that surely is an excellent build!

    Regards,

    Again, Awe inspiring stuff Ross. Just magic!




    A question...
    No grooves for the door openings?
    Too many projects, so little time, even less money!

    Oh, and another thing for your next one... Letraset. Rub on transfer alphabet and number stickers available in different fonts and sizes. Your local newsagent should have it. Could use it for number plate.

    Yonnee. I wasn't game to groove the door openings at the time I thought of it.I should have tried it just after I cut sides out.Then if I -well- mucked one up,I could have done another.
    The letraset thing.You are right I also have clear iron on paper to print on that works on timber.Make it next time.
    Picking on my numberplate Hey.Well did you notice that there is no back one?
    It is made ,but I forgot it till I read your post.
    I was going to send you a couple of hi res photos,but I dont think that is a good idea now.

    Thanks for your comments Yonnee
    Ross
