Still got a few bits and bobs to do, got an early SR steering wheel heading my way, got a small blow in the exhaust at the join - just have to dismantle and putty it, the wheels could do with a paint, tax and test and that's about it.
I'm not expecting to be at any shows this year, with our first baby on the way in 7 weeks, my time this year is pre-occupied. I just wanted to get the car finished so as not to loose interest or have my interests elsewhere when the time comes.
I really appreciate the comments.
Shaun.
Shaun - just read the thred start to finish and you've done a cracking job mate!
I now know what colour my rebuild's gonna be in! lol
Have you considered adding the side skirts on again? The front bumper is nice and deep but the middle seems a little high. Skirts - even if not the original saloon ones (another sfter market set perhaps) might give it a bit of side depth.
Either way it's a great result to a project! Will need to meet up sometime!

Cheers Ade,
Nah, the skirts went in the bin. I know what your saying about the middle looking high, but I don't want to spoil it. I like the cleanliness of it.
Just have to lower the rear more, ha ha.
Defo have to get a meet sorted.
Cheers,
Shaun.
Shaun have you thought of a yellow pin stripe in the bumpers like the early SR had? The wheels really suit it and i think the zender spoiler you should give to me lol
Those wheels really set if off mate
Nice to meet you today as well :)
looks top shaun, them wheels look ace.. although i did pester vaughan to keep them lol
imo needs a windscreen liek mine (not sri, slightly shallower tint), some saloon rear window and front frames and some sort of bumper extension on the rear, as i think the valance on the front shows off the f/end too much :thumb:
The pictures of early SR's that I could find had an orangy/red stripe on the bumper. I like the red stripe, it's really made a difference I think.Quote:
