Is that a fibre rear lid? You'll be glassing in the louvres then?

Have you seen the steel lid on ebay? I hear it's being offered by a very reliable and decent bloke/deviant too...

Funny today I went to a classic car show in Cheshire & I saw in the show a speedster replica (bad one aswell) & three years ago I saw at Tatton park , I asked the lady "what kit is it " ? she replied " its a real one " I laughed & said "no I no abit about them" she replied " look at the tax disc " Porsche"! I said ye but its a kit ! :roll: in the end her husband said " come away from him ! come away" with an angry look ,I laughed .So today I asked my mate to say the same thing " what kit is it " & she said its the real thing " I had to walk away LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :oops:

Stupid fools, trying to to pass a kit as a Mckoy.

Metal mickey can do louvres in steel or ally. Have you got his number??? and he's over here, which is a bonus.

How you getting on with grafting that roof in?
