ok, slowly but surely she starts taking shape. 
Considering how shagged the fenders were, not completely unhappy!
Now here's the concern.....sticks out a tad on the left. Not sure there's a hell of a lot i can do at this stage to correct, might need further discussion with Dave R. Not sure i like the idea of fibreglass slicing into tyres mid corner. Will also have to check measurements for wheel base. I think i may have adjusted too much for the bent head, but easy enough to correct. All good
Round number 2 for flatting coming up
Not nearly as bad as the first round though.

Now that is the stage when the arse begins to itch realy alot

lol....you're not wrong!! Best part is the first coat went on today, on my 1st wedding anniversary My wife must really like me!! Starting to get very itchy now. Have 1 week off in C.T. before i'm off to JHB, so should get quite a bit done then. Perhaps even complete and ready for final coats by the time i get back on the 3rd.
Scratching that itch!!;)

looking very good Kev, I'm jealous, I've decided that I'm going to wait for paint only when the engine is 100% donem so that's 6 months at least.
Man I'm VERY jealous.
