    No mechanicals or fiberglass today, Today was a bit of wiring, one of the things that has pecked my head since the engine went in was the temporary starter switch (screwdriver, which I've lost a few times) and having to turn round to start the car, so now I don't have to go through all that anymore.

    some from of flat-bed sander will be necessary with the integrale style arches to get the flats pronounced properly, no curves to hide in here, nice job so far mate, sure you don't fancy her in integrale red...?????

    It did come across as pretty harsh and yet you chose to still post it. Odd.

    If you look at the time of the post, then look at the time of the edit, you will see there was an 8 hour gap.
