Sorry for the delay guys, been on the back burner this winter. Far too cold to get down there, plus i've spent time rebuilding a celica gt-four and sorting out my new 5 series (still have a clio though, purely to merit my membership xD)

All welding is now done, im just waiting on the weather before i can cart her off to get sprayed... Now on its pan too

Sills done:

Will most probs be at volksworld, without the car though

If i can crack on with it, should be on the streets for mid summer
 
There weren't many split ovals at VolksWorld this year... A few lovely examples inside the hall though.
I really can't wait to see what you've got planned with this.

Any updates since the weathers improved?

You wouldnt believe how tempting it is to slap the panels and lights on and rock it how it is... :)
Rat FTW?

ive probably not read the thread properly (actually i havent, but the pretty pictures caught my eye and i will read it later when i have time), but what colour is it going?

Loosely building it up as it needs to be wet sanded and mopped... still couldnt resist sticking the dynamat in though
