Very nice i love RHD just the look when the left door ups and there isn't a wheel. I guess its a personal thing but on RHD car does the gears go right to left or left to right? So i otherwords 1st gear is closest to you or farest from you?

There was a thread about this a little while back. If I remember right they're rear fog lights, so others can see you when it's foggy.

And Kas, sweet car!

damn, that is just simply the cleanest interior I have ever seen. Good job.

Why didn't you get the lip molded and painted?

Hey guy's, sorry i lost this thread for a while.

thanks for the comments, i do love my car.

I'll get more video footage of me thrashing soon.

Ok Q's.

The paint was done in a workshop.

The shifting arangement is:

-----------------------------
passenger | driver
135
24R
-----------------------------

that makes sense right ?


Thanks guy's,

Dave

Looks realy nice, body work ans painting is A class.

The red fog light are there to be easy noticed by larger vehicles when rainy and or foggy, they have been standard in europe for a long time, now they beggining to install'em in the states also in small cars.
