| Cheers guys! Drivin this thing round as it is, is so much fun! Everyone turns and looks at it!  If I didn't pick up the cherry candy today, I'd leave it as a rat! It's just so much fun!!!!! ...The cherry looks awesome, cant wait to use it! Did a bit more filling in holes today. There's alot more work in it than I thought! I just hope it don't rain before I can get round to glass! How it looks now....  | |

| Here you go: (Not really an update,this was in morrisons car park sunday morning)  Tonight I've been working on the front pillars. Got em fully welded and cleaned up. Ready to take a template for the screen!  Also cleaned up the welds on the roof and threw on some etch primer!  I think Rach wants me to cut and fit the screen tomorrow! She got a taxi to work and forgot to take her hat, scarf gloves etc. She got a little cold when I picked her up! | |
