Stunning work, love the colour choice with those wheels and the body too really stands out, in a subtle way haha.

Ben, thanks for the Bonnet and door cards there brilliant and i cant recommend you enough!
Might have to pinch your idea on the rose jointed mount for the alternator if thats ok? Found a nice shiny spacer to go over the long bolt, its actually a Suzuki Hayabusa engine mount that i had lying around.

Nice work, that's a lovely looking engine bay. I was checking out the KAD stand yesterday trying to figure out which one of my brothers I should sell to get one of their engines.

Haha! I don't think your brother would be very pleased.
Brought a rollcentre cage and had to chop the harness bar out because I couldn't get it in otherwise. I'm Going to over sleeve it to make a sort of removeable bar.

Mate, this looks stunning. Often carbon fibre looks out of place when left exposed but the paint colour works perfectly with it here, can't wait to see it finished. Any idea what you've spent on this so far? Must be a fair amount with all the quality parts you've got together.

Thanks for the kind comments. I haven't totted up yet and I might not. It's taking a while to do but it's worth saving up for the proper bits.
