Thanks Guy's, I am very happy with the result :) Better than the option you can get with the kit, The option is to short IMO as if it was real you would have to lean forward and reach down to change gears lol.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

Andy, you may have an issue if you run this car : it will be slightly disappointing not having the head of the driver turning, the steering wheel turning, and the gear lever and hand of the driver moving along the ride :-D
I buy kits to built and ru(i)n them :-)

I have a cool new piece arriving for this project so it was time to make some more progress
Media blasted the seats before priming and completing the first of the top colours, It will dry satin black
This will need to harden off before I can mask off to complete the 2nd and final colour

Well that looks snazzy
Custom laser cut alloy roof for this is mint
I'll machine some spacers and tap the front cage bar to fit it up

I love these seats. And the roof. You maybe could put some nets on the side?
