Front bumper is finally on, fit and finish isn't as good as I wanted, I think I'm going to have to re design how the sides are attached as the current method just isn't working well enough for me.

Mean and moody, thoughbut!

"Bring the noise!"
Ok more pics,lol. Managed to get the bonnet painted today and also got the new brackets made and fitted to the bumper (fits a hell of a lot better now), they both still need a cut and polish to get rid of a few bits of crap in the paint but that'll have to wait a week or two for the paint to harden fully.

Much as i hate to admit it , its starting to look good pegleg
I love that car, but then I do love the battleship cruisers-style cars that Volvo used to make. Looks great with the bumper and the alloys, lovely stuff.

Looks good mate, nice one - really like the look of it, well apart from 'the cat on heat' back end

That's it I'm not going to follow this thread anymore, you're making me feel jealous and inadequate. I'm rubbish at fibre glass and I can't get the body to flat down and leave a surface smooth enough.
Just one thing, are you hiring it out for breeding ?
Looks really nice though.
