Nice one mate. Coming along really well. Should be proud

Mind give us a shout if you need a hand

[Stu/RS]

Looking good Shifty mate. Good choice of size/spec for the rear arches. The big fookers are nice on a rally car, but for a useable car these look perfect.

[Adie]

[SHIFTY]

Cheers lads! I was out and primed the inner arch tonight, get the stone chip gear and underseal on tomorrow
Then start on the other side. After thats done it will be the 5-linking, turrets and extra bars in cage....oh and more strengthinig up front.....then maybe il be ready for paint!
Delv: Thanks mate il deffo keep you in mind.....might even get a few beers in and pakora for snacks in the workshop!
Stu: Cheers mate, im glad I went for the tarmac ones, in between sizes of the forrest spec (below swage line) and Monte Carlo spec (like McRae's)
