Continued from Part1.

Well it has been a while and taken some time to get this car to my house finally.
When it was delivered, I had it dropped off at my parents as I needed to sort some things at my house first...
God Bless My Parents! Lips Sealed

I had to build a small "decking" on the side of my garage for the car to sit on. Since I eventually will have a driveway all the way up the side,
I built this "temporary" level deck for the car to go on.
It is now on the side of my garage away from the eyes of my wife...
might I say, My very understanding wife.
Anyway, here she is finally home and ready to get a total overhaul!

As you can see, I need to finish the rear of the deck.
Let's just say that my parents wanted this car off their driveway Grin

Doesn't look like it needs an excessive amount of work Dave. Not bad at all. Needs more chrome, flames down the side and pink fluffy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror IMHO Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I've gotta agree with Mark, minus the fluffy dice.
Definitly need to do something about the wheels though. Are you going to give it a respray? If so have you thought about some white stripes over the top? And at the very least change the front indicators from orange glass to clear with an orange bulb. Would look much more clean with the bumper.

Looks good Dave, doesn't look like too much needs to be done...I think it makes a great little project. Have fun with it and good luck!!!

By the way, I'll be posting some updated photos of my little project...as its going to be running in a few days (after 2 years).
