Thanks Jeroen, yes it WILL be at Sharknose 2016, I'll probably bring it on a trailer, so it will definitely be there.
I'll be taking the shell and panels to the paint shop next weekend for the next stage and the special paint .

I keep saying to my dad "that will do, its only a race car", and he responds with "you need to do it justice with the amount you're spending on it, look at this bit, lets make that better".
TBH he is going to be playing with the final touches to the front wings this week without me, I'll just keep concentrating on the mechanical / performance bits and leave him to it.

As long as its ready for the paint shop on Saturday I don't mind.

for your dad!

+1!

Hi all,

Bit more progress, finally got the shell to the bodyshop.




Had to wait for this to be sent home as it takes up too much space



Bit of seam sealing and a factory style sealant over the underside.




And then some paint





Then some lacquer, although it looks similar




And finally fitted some old temporary suspension.



Next up will be interior paint and lacquer then boot and engine bay.

Cheers

Ben
