Sounds like something a BBC wireless presenter would've announced to the French resistance in 1944.

Good safety tip though :)

That looks pretty jazzy , dogs danglys and all that, well done team ribble.
i like it with the steel wheels but admit wires is the obvious choice really . has anyone used alternative wheels on one yet? other than the mgf wheels i mean. one question i have is how are you going to bulge and scoop and re-aline the bonnet without damaging that glorious paint?

Any pictures of the first Cordite/Navigator finished or is it still work in progress.

Hi Froggyman,
We had a minor setback with the bonnet as mentioned ( A Pilot one which needed too much cutting to cover the engine.)which caused some head scratching so have reverted to the original Navigator style. This is now in paint along with the humps so photos will be forthcoming when we get them back. In the mean time, the dash has now been decided upon and interior is in progres.
