It does look good, but it also shows up any little area's we forgot to either weld or any grind marks.....luckily they're not much to worry about.

Still not decided, this has been the inspiration up to this point of time...

Although, since I have a little bit of leftover paint from doing Jims Driveshaft, in the interest to save money, it might become a 'so-cal' red....

Plus, don't tell anyone, I've heard that red goes faster....

Cheers,

ok...a week out, all the guys (and girls) are tired, but there is light at the end of the tunnel, and it's really starting to shine........

Watch out for the glare on December 3, if they go even 1/4 as good as they look in the flesh, then it will have been a good thing....

See you all on Saturday.

Deadlines are a good thing, very exhausting (every night for the last few weeks into the early hours, again EVERY night, with more to come), but great to see progress.....

Watchout, this is only the tip of the iceburg...

Cheers,

Geting through the back log and catching up for the past few weeks.

Things are progressing quickly now with only a week til the debut at the Cruzin Nostalgia Drags at Western Sydney International Dragway.

Another update later this week, with the paint no on the cars and final reassembly.

Some excellent attention to detail there boys!

Make sure to take lots of foters at the drags.... I'll concentrate my lens on other, less interesting rides

Approaching race readiness...

The Hambsters have progressed so far, but so much still to do and only one week to do it!

I think I see some Stahlewillie spanner there Matt?? Don't see too many round the traps anymore. Nice rides boys and good luck, may all your lights be green and keep it shiny side up.
