Yes mate a mad one at the best of times! Thats the problem when you have the tools to do this stuff. You get an idea and it just kind of happens!!!

It will be my daily driver when its done but i'll cut no corners on the paint when i do it.

Thanks dude, took ages to work out. Full Equal length @ 94"



Here are somemore of the wheels, this pretty much brings the build up to date to be honest!

Modified Yam Blue with MAAAAADDDD! crazy Xerallic overlay Pics really don't do any justice

The build is going well i see! very nice work!! i want to say that I've always wanted to duplicate the telescoping intake manifold for the le mans 787b r26b into a 13b but i have quite a bit of reading to do but i i can get some 1/3 of the power the r26b made (700hp) that would be ideal!!sorry went off there :P but i love the build !! keep posting!!

Cheers for the positive comments people, always appriciated

Got the wheels rubbered up and back on the car for a look see on how they'd look. Also now with 16mm bolt up spacers on the rear so now the 285's sit right up in the arch:







Also been doing a few late nights in the booth so managing to get some of the colour on too. Needs another coat of the Blue then i can get on with the white and detailing. Still gives an idea

She'll sit pretty much as she is as its a daily driver so has to deal with multistory car parks/speed hunos etc.

A few more late nights and have got a little closer:

These flames you will barely see in the finished product. They will be based black the i will use the blue in a semi opaque form over the top.

Anyway here they are masked; Old SKOOL.



Here are some more of the car now with the white in place few bits need touching up but gives you the jist before the laquer goes one. slightly different designs either side:
