Would be nice to have a ratty hornet rolling about. Would have some nice character to it. The mini floor repair panels going to work well enough, or are you going to have to make some custom panels still?

[LOWRIDERHORNET]

really interested in seeing how this turns out, wanting to do an elf/hornet next year when we have an actual garage!

[LOWRIDERHORNET]

Hopefully its not going to be like any other Hornet ive seen

Hey - looking good!

What are you doing with your front brakes? Splashing out on 7.5" disks, using 8.4" with 12" wheels, or staying on drums?

Also what have you got in the way of interior? Mine had the remains of 40 years of abuse in it, all being replaced, and got to be smart and have some water resistance, with being a soft-top.

So much to do!

Dave
