    Love the driver Mark!!! I take it he had red booties so he could see what his feet were doing on the pedals. It was kinda dark under the dash, I believe.....It also seems we all are getting lucky with the tire decals too...They look good Sir!!!...

            Your car looks so good you won't have to resort to dirt and dust
            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                  The drivers backside is now firmly planted in the seat. The interior tub is attached to the chassis and ive made a start on some decals which are some of the nicest decals ive come across.
                  The body has had a coat of white base just waiting for some gloss laquer .Click image for larger version

                        So the paint has had a few coats of gloss clear, sanded with 7000 grit wet and dry and polished with a 12000grit polishing pad.most of decals have been applied, light lenses to be painted and added then the body will go on the chassis before fitting the windows.Click image for larger version

                            That's looking really good. Love the little changes and additions you've done on the driver.

                            That's coming together very nicely indeed.

                            Keep up the good work.
