looking good mike, always nice putting cars back together once they're painted! every bit just sets the paint of that bit more.
I like the bumper, the centre winch bit looks really neat, if it was mine though id be tempted to drop the end pieces down a bit so they sit level with the top of the winch if you get me? bet your itching to take it for a spin.

yes sam i am really wanting to drive it !!!
shock towers are done too
started with 120x120x500 box section.
cut it in half, and then cut the bottom off:
compared to standard tower:
cut a small hole in the inner wing, the other side will have a bigger hole but i dont think it will matter.
drilled some holes to plug weld through:
made a plate for the top, drilled three holes for adjustment:
glued it togther:
zapped it on:
painted and done
what you think??
