    Absolutely Adam, attention to detail certainly counts for a lot in whether a car looks `right`... Looking great so far

    A long time since my last update. All the metal work is done and the car is now painted with the chassis built up. The engine block is at ICE being honed out. Pistons from JE are finally here so I can put the engine together.It's on the corner before the home straight. I have a date of the Supernats to have it finished if there is time to get it done!

    shame you couldn't get the engine and box in the chassis before fitting the body, but i fully understand the need to get freshly painted panels somewhere 'safe'. i like the 'panel' paint job, very nice.

    Looking good Adam. I'm liking the 60's vibe.

    Who cares If It's glass or steel, It's still a hot rod.

    Its was a case of the pistons taking 3 months then I couldn't get the block homed without them so that had to wait. Just have to buy lots of towels when it goes in mate.
