Of all the glorious and outlandish mods - avid follower of your youtube channel...one simple mod is also winning me over. Crystal clear headlights. Nice!!!
Yeah... there's some proper chicken-sacrificing dark magic happening to get and keep those!!

Always found linking through an external site a faff so kinda stopped.

Here's a test pic to see if it works [emoji16]

It's the main reason I use Tapatalk Lee. Sometimes I'll write the post on pc and then add the images via Tapatalk afterwards.

In any case, your picture works! Great to have you posting again

Ive only used tapatalk a couple of times. I'll post a few more pics more often now I know. I was uploading them to photobucket then copying the link. It was a PITA.

Prepping it ready.

I'm not sure of a name.... it's a mix of 2 that aren't really supposed to go together. You'll see

Be aware/ beware if the 2 colours are blue and green!
Similarly if more than 2, it is said ( by Terry Wogan IIRC) that if all colours if mixed become beige.

I'm guessing with your Name/ trade it might be in this part of the spectrum:

What an awesome foto, totally befitting a fascinating read!

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of your entries from the beginning Lee. Thank you!

The red thread about your wife and your outlook on relationships... man, again  :notworthy:

My personal outlook on the latter subject is different as are my priorities in modding a car but that only makes me appreciate and enjoy your exploits so much the more:
A diamond gets its brilliance from the diffrent facets and there are quite enough shades of dull in society. Thanks for shining light on a different facet Lee!!

Looking forward to the new colour :D

Blimey, that is brilliant, well played that man!  It doesn't even look like a road car any more, fantastic work mate!  Looks like it would be more at home blasting around the Nurbergring than popping down to Tesco's for the weekly shop, lol.

New colour is nearly ready. This colour needs sunlight to bring it to life.

Very nice!
Am but the only one thinking a trip down to Swansea is in order to find a complimentary new roof? Maybe silver/grey?

Well I've got a silver one which I suspect I shall be parting with at some point... I suspect colour is irrelevant to you though!

Yeah colour is irrelevant. I'll sort something out soon. I've got my other wheels to part with.

Swansea or SevenOaks... would have cost me too much grief and time (and that means cash - I'm a contractor), so SevenOaks was actually way cheaper for me ;)

Ok so the car is done. Here's some pics

This colour will really look good under the sun. Candy apple red sprayed over a grey base. Deep Cherry coloured finish

Nice job Lee

Cheers. I'll post some pics when the sun decides to show itself. It comes to life with sun.

I've moved the power steering pump and the battery. Removed the frunk and ducted up from the back of the radiators to the bonnet vents.
Cut and refitted the plastics to make it look pretty.

Very cool, including literally, frunk Lee!

I see you have cut outs above the McPherson legs; going to mount a brace? The brace for mine should be here in a week. Already have 20 of the push-thingamies for the frunk plastic. As always; the least important things arrive first.
