That will look cool

The sad thing about this car is,that one day there will be nothing left to do on it.And for that reason we should all feel very sorry for DAVE.

I think that bumper looks spot on with the number plate re-located

As many others have said i'm not overly sure about the mirror but granted it is unique.

I'm a bit how you let the car get so dusty surely that must be a bufties worst nightmare come show time - cleaning all that off

Crack on though i can't wait to see it finished
