lol cheers. It was the last thing i noticed, do'h!!
Underside is very nice
All looks top quality work
I must say Pete im impressed, the wait looks like it going to be worth it, getting there slowly, and it's really coming on well... Wish i had a time and a garage to work in (the one i had has just been knocked down, the missis dad is redoing the hole garden etc) was just about to do some things in there on the MK1 ready for billing, will have to hope for good weather and do it at the olds on there drive now.
And congratulations on the baby mate, didn't know as Ive not spoke to you in a while..
Keep on it.
