That looks excellent! Really, really well done man! I instantly had thoughts of iridescent enormous metalflake stripes down each centre side, and matching front steelies. |

Sounds good dude....all I'll say is think/plan & consult people who's opinion you respect.....
I've seen too many beautifully styled race cars let down by graphics/ names etc painted on them that just don't suit the overall style /era of the build....
Of course, just my opinion, but I've had a few glasses of wine and thought I'd share it !
Cheers.....Jick

we work 2 weeks very hard to get the car ready for DDD. i don't have the time to take more pictures of the rest  the good news is the car is ready and my first run on DDD is a blast i run straight from the trailer 12,6 sec with the 1915CC ( never run 1 meter before, never test the car) it was a run not the full 400m on the gas, i broke my clutch from 3the to 4the gear and i pud the engine off around 300m here some pīcs of the car, LIME JUICE is born      |
