Hey Dean, yeah I have waited a long time to do this and with the use of all donor parts to finish the car my overall expenses are minimal, I would estimate that I will finish this car for less than $20K doing it all myself including paint etc.. so the motivation is there and it is not costing me a huge amount of money (like the GT40 did..LOL) so my plan is to keep plugging away at the small jobs and then once the chassis is finished I will paint it and put the entire car together minus the body and drive it around to test it - lucky for me I live on a remote Island where the police don't come out to play until after midday, so early morning test runs into Emu Bay will be the go.. Then when I am confident in the drive system and braking etc.. the body can be built and made to fit the wider body stance.

Cheers
