In answer to fiestaharry, Thanks for comments but I do NOT weld galvanised metal, as I am well aware of the fumes it causes. I always grind the galvanised coating off around the area before welding. In any case, you get a bad porous weld if you try to weld galvanising.
In answer to Rocket, Thanks for the positive comments !

Ha ha thank you for your kind words! I can assure you that there is NOT a lot of cash that's gone in to my project though - much of it has been from deals with friends, cash made from selling some parts, getting bits from TMF Members and eBay and careful use of birthday money!! Mrs B would NOT allow me to spend spend spend - that's for sure!
Your project's coming on nicely - love the attention to detail and the skill. Look forward to Installment #8

The rubber seal around the lid is from a scrapped hatch back car:-
The front panel 'swoopy' paint job was an attempt at breaking up the large expanse of the front panel:-
The lid stays were made up from 20 x 4 mm flat steel:-
The boot lid doesn't really need to open but could serve as a table at shows:-
No engine therefore no cc's !
Hitched up to it's parent and ready to go !
