Nice work. I see you've gone the same route as me with a fuel tank recess in the centre. What are your plans for the exhaust?

russ rs

Yea mate it's a lot shorter than yours clearance to run normal exhaust route hopefully 🙈. A lot have gone side exit. Might get new one made if not bang on anyway

russ rs

Usual chassis repair

russ rs

Not sure if like this black finish

russ rs

??? Dunno

muz

Go body coloured. I remember when I did mine I was given some "over paintable under seal" and it was black Shultz! Spent hours on my back with a bowl of petrol taking it all back off!

russ rs

Yea that's what's done on it mate. I am going black inside mate. So not sure

muz

It looks good when it's fresh but after a while it picks up all the dirt and looks dirty. Depends on the look you're after I guess.

russ rs

Just had a surprise text off Phil @ carbon delight
Roofs ready 👍

russ rs

Small update rose joints arrived for rear set up

muz

What size joints are those? They look a little small? I was advised 5/8 minimum when I built mine.

So eventually the car is at the point of going the body shop. But what colour ??????

Caddyshack

White imo


Nice build

russ rs

Thinks something different

moondustka

White gets my vote too..

I'd do it white, then get it wrapped if you want something different or a bit 'out there'. Then you can take it off if you get bored.

russ rs

Well she's off to the paint shop at last

Rsmat
