I love those proportions, they remind me of the 1940's business coupés:


That works oh so well. Please keep us posted

[custommoggy]

Actually I do like the design of this car and it does look 1940s, very well thought out and built,
mine is my own car built to my taste, but TF here looks nice n beefy, well done, as for the killjoys
with their waving the rulebook about, just ignore them, they need to get a life!
The basic difference is you extended the body and I coupe'd the roof

Yo Jonfiddler, i’m gonna give you a tip - each time you put a photo into one of your posts, press return after the [/img] so that you don’t get two photos on the same line. That way your posts will always display properly and not have text stretching right off the page

quit bitchin' about BIVa and enjoy the pics!

Great car. Just read this with my mouth open in total awe of your vision and skills.

Have you decided a colour??

Top stuff Jon, this is absolutely superb. Messing with original lines rarely improves the the shape of a minor but this succeeds brilliantly.

Very few pull it off as well as this and in my eyes extending the rear greatly improves the original stubby proportions.

[hairymel]

just to add to the praise jonny -

brilliant looking build, nice concept and superbly executed

puts to shame those of us, who spend more time posting pictures, than building cars.

( i'm looking at myself )

inspiring stuff

A very impressive build. I see you've used a short bonnet and matching scuttle - any reason for this?
Have you visited this site at all: mog.myfreeforum.org/index.php?sid=4492b40ce091c7f0e08e43a0a6824b62 as the guys there are similarly impressed with your build.

Yeah loving it, I've had similar plans with body swapping, oh and if you want rid of the early bumpers please sell them my way!

Inspiring build mate
As for working outside mate have you seen these,
www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/clarke-cig1220-heavy-duty-instant-garage
Look like you have a fair bit of land to play with....obviously they won't cope well with sparks and the like but for prepping and paint could be ideal...

[plasticorange]

These early bumpers are about twice the weight of the later ones.

Glad you got the knack of posting pictures and stuff, this has made a good read! Looking forward to how you finish it off, grey with red interior would look great.

[ben711200]

This is truly outstanding. Personally, I think the registration stuff is relevant and interesting but I can appreciate that to some it detracts from the build itself.

I have no idea how you found those fabrication skills, but please don't stop!

[freddies]

Looks so damn cool without bumpers! full on american hotrod style or cal look beetle.

Really like where how this has gone, and understand how much of a PITA it is working outside in all weathers

[xbo11ox]

looks super neat, impressive stuff alright

[zircon]

You, sir, are a car building legend!

Would love you to teach me to weld!!!

[stealthstylz]

I think the only thing I'm not 100% sure on is the lack of lips on the rear arches. I know it doesn't need them as such, but I think if it were mine i'd have left the main arch an inch narrower and put lips on them too.

[plasticorange]

Did you consider going the Lowlight route at all?
I agree with you that the high cut wings look better - so long as wheels are centred in the arch.
