Im really gutted the car wasnt finished in time for the pod i was really looking forward to it after the year of hard work and cash,but everything seemed to go out the window the car was late coming back from the bodyshop and then I found a oil leak coming from the rear crank seal which had been replaced when the engine was rebuilt :cry: :cry:. Theres still alot of work to do i need to, finish underneath as iv only put one coat of underseal on thats why you can patches were iv missed lol. the inner arches need to be painted and the suspension and diff etc, so hopefully she'il be ready for the shows next year..... heres some piccies

Gutted for you missing the show - and gutted for me not having a car in that condition! I'm sure it will be worth waiting until next year for that!

Good work! :thumb:
