Nice! and that is what building a kit car is all about and anyone who takes it more seriously than that should be ashamed of themselves :)

This has been one of my favourite build thread in a long time and I have enjoyed watching the car come together. Great job you have done so far! Any idea what colour you are going to paint it?

Fantastic, this would definitely be my colour choice as well. I was lucky enough in the autumn to have a look around the Ecurie Ecosse transporter complete with C and D type (replicas). I have also visited the original EE garage in Edinburgh (by accident as it happens.....it is now a wine warehouse...:peep: )

Sorry to disappoint you, but, je suis Rosbif, and, if it swims in the sea, walks the Earth or flies in the sky it's fair game to be eaten as far as I'm concerned. Even green amphibians. :sick:

And if you've ever heard the English expression "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" well, just recently, if you like ready meals...
