Sat and watched it earlier, class job on the powder coating. It all looks great. Next, engine hopefully. 8-|

Yeah, bit of an extended advert for the bloke that was doing the powder coating for them. Reasonable results though.
I'd rather see a coat of de-ox gel and some epoxy paint on stuff like that rear subframe that was heavily pitted. Recently been stripping parts with a twist knot wire wheel and i wish i had a blast cabinet.

I was disappointed with the shade of green. I think it would have looked far better the shiny gold colour against the grey and red. Still great workmanship as always.

Nice to see that even with the level of detail stored in that guys head they still make mistakes :grinning: Makes me feel human

That powertrain is looking minty fresh, love the plated bolts. Hope their bodyshop is beavering away with that shell till we see what this thing looks like properly together.

Properly looking forward to seeing this come together as they have done so much dry build work including the loom, exhaust, brake lines, fuel lines etc. SHOULD come together reasonably quickly. 🤣
