And don't they fit in under there like they were made for the car too?
It's been a long job obviously but the end result proves the worth of the planning and effort involved.
Wonderful result. Chalk up another one for Aussie Mike!!! Well done to the pair of you.

Where did you end up getting the sidepipes from? Did you make them yourself?

Default Nice touches

WHEELS look great...
...probably one of the only reasons I didn't opt for a Classic Revival was the non-deep dish wheels... but seeing the development you & Mike have done make me wonder.

Well done, I congratulate & tip my hat to both of you

All I did was loan him my suspension jigs and supply a bit of advice. Paul's beautiful result is all down to him.

Great looking car Paul, you should be very proud.

A real blokes shed needs a Dalek in the corner.

Cheers
