Just read through your project, what an amazing amount of time you've put in! Dread to think how much it has all cost!

Looks fantastic though, love the suspension set up, great job.

Thanks mate.

Took me 3 and half years lol !!

But that was cus I work a lot, had to to pay for parts !

Was worth it I think, works well and looks just how I wanted it too.

Yeh I would dread to know how much I have spent on it too, would provably cry if I knew !!

Nice one Mike, you've certainly built one of the best Zuks in the country. Deserves a good feature in a magazine. Good to see it gets used in anger too.

Hello people

Just though I'd share some pics of the half doors I knocked up today.

What do we think? Keep or bin?!

There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
