Thats pretty much it for now,progress will be slow for the next while,as i've got some other projects to finish off,but plan to get back at it properly early in the new year

Tasty bit of work lad.... cant wait to see the finished result.... keep up the good work..

Tidy work"......

Was hoping the picture would just keep comming. The fabrication work is top notch. I was expecting to see press brakes and trumph machines for the panel work, very suprised to see the hand made bending tool. Great work. Just shows what can be done when you have talent on your side

Yes it will be rhd,the exhaust will be heat wrapped or ceramic coated and is over an inch away from the tunnel at any point,under the tunnel will also have a thermal barrier so heat won't be a problem

seriously tidy job lad! fair play
