I loved that series and was just looking for it again. I Laughed 😂 so hard. It was great fun and your uncle did a great job! If your uncle would like to do a walk around with us … and share some hilarious moments, send me an email (in our channel home page). Cheers 🥂 Jim
That’s why we do these things. Keep on keeping on and don’t loose hope! You will get there and Al is absolutely right, there’s nothing like driving your own car.
Thank you so much for doing this. The information is really useful, especially Al's pdf. Is there any concern about galvanic corrosion between the aluminum and steel? All the best, Dan
My space frame is powder coated so it’s a bit of a different issue. Been like that for 17 years now and no issues. Al is the guy who can comment better on this issue so I will have a chat. If you are on FB shoot me a messenger text (Jim Gould)
I really like the finish of all the cars. On th red one i was surpised how good the louvres look on the outside of the bonnet (hood) using his method. Red also looks surprisingly good. I must admit not keen on the finish of the abs boot (trunk) cover or the fact it is not water tight. The finish around the corners looks really bad (at least on camera). Also not a fan of the rear bumper, i realise why he did it but i would risk it and run without one personally. Green car is very nice indeed.
