very nice work there! looks like you got your glassing skills all buttoned down, and you're working to a pretty good standard!

is that bodywork fiberglass or steel? I was just thinking if it is steel, what will happen at the joint's to the fiberglass when you go offroading?
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out

The orange car is an Mk Indy with a Yamaha R1 engine very quick :D

Unfortunately I've already sold the trim, the body although looks good In the pics it was knackered it would have taken a lot to save!

Brilliant! Although looking at that, I'm glad I never attempted my conversion on a driveway. I do think it's a job best tackled in a proper workshop.
