Dude, if you get a second in the morning, can you send me a text to remind me about the running board mat? it should have been picked already but it wasn't dumped on my desk before I left Grin

I went to Volksworld, and this was one of the reasons to go. I am not dissapointed, for me this was one of the best cars on show. It is not my cup of tea, but then I'm not into full on race cars, but the subtlety of this car rocks. Combined with finishing to a high standard and a really funny cage (lovely coice of color for it) it is a great car. I even think the wheels fit the theme, any other wheel (brm, erco, burners ...) would have made it common.

And now post some pics for others to enjoy !!!

One of THE cars of the VolksWorld show for me. Just about everything is spot-on - subtle, but very purposeful and super trick. A very well deserved award win, too Cool

Hi Steve/ Adele!

I know i've heard a lot about the car during the build, but when i saw the finished result i was blown away! The car is absolutly stunning! Smiley Smiley

It looks amazing! Sutle but purposefull! I even think the wheels work which i was initially not very sure about!  Tongue Grin

I loved the small detail bits like the guauges in the glove box with the chrome trim cut to match to them!  Smiley

I'm so painting my car the same colour!  Grin

Dude  Cool

P.S. Sorry i didnt get to see you Steve.  Sad The day just disapeared! I'll give you a call during the week!  Smiley
