well did some more work on the panda its now got a roof



we layed the roof on to see how it matched up needed a bit of work as you can see



we had to put a jack under the panda to stop it flexing to much


my mate olly choping it about



not looking to bad at this point we decided to weld it behined the light



offered up the boot to see how bent we had cut it



tadaaaa my panda has its head on agan

are you going to go for a proper finished look, all smooth edges and nice paintjob, or are you leaving it function over form style?

Yes it was

My how that has changed since my friend built it, and I see its got another owner ! I think since my mate sold it a few years ago it must have gone through 7 or 8 new owners ! Was so much fun. Looked pig ugly but that was the charm of the thing and it would run a 13.2 quarter which wasn't too shabby !

Good luck with the car

PMSL @ the flamer pics.

Clarkey will love that, as he won USC flamer contest last year with his escort.

He is known in the trade as "the chav from chingford"

at the time (and this was going back 4/5 years) they were the big craze and the chap that built the Panda also built his Butane Flamer and nothing could touch it. We were even in the Donny Shows flaming the arena just before Firestorm was brought on !

Oh those were the days (god I feel old now )

You'll have to try harder than that, He had twin flames on the Panda so it wasn't as big a flame, mine however only had a single exit exhaust !

Yep, butane canisters were used
