i guess you could call this my second home... under a car, i have a doner car as you can see.. i need a complete diff as myne is stripped, i want to take the car off the rotisserie to mock the drive line and those aspects so i have ripped out the diff from the donner :)

the 1200 had had a huge smack in the drives side front, the radiator suppport was bout 2 inch away from the guard.. so i pannel beat it the best i could but came up short about half an inch so i cut and put a slither in the guard it is all sweet now

i really dislike the stock nuberplate mounting so i fabricated up a new one, cut the sill a bit and welded her in, i find it much more attractive now haha

Because i have louvered the bonnet, i would have had trouble with water running into webbers! not good.. so i have fabricated a plate to block off all water and welded and urithaned it on, but because it is on the insdie of the bonnet you would be able too see it through the louvers so here is the 1st painted piece, 2002 sting red :D
