As some of you might recall this was meant to be a christmas gift for my father. I got it finished about five hours before I gave it to him, talk about a close call! Well here it is in all it's glory. The only thing that I'm not to happy with is those ugly silver wires underneath, next time I'll drill holes and use tiny screws up into the tires instead to hold the car down.
Have to give him a license plate to cover that ugly spot in the back!

Fantastic job. :bigthumb:
I'm glad to see it in stock form.
It looks so classy when it's not low-ridered out.
The seats are definately a high point.

Hi Zlatan!
There is no mold line left on any of the bumpers as I sanded them smooth and gave them the Alcald 2 chrome treatment. If you mean the two "seams" that divides the bumper in three separate parts, that is factory correct...it was made that way. Thanks for the feedback!

Yes I know of that license plate pin-mark and if you read my first post It'll get fixed in due time. I didn't have either time nor equipment to fix it before I gave it away. That's the problem not being home building with all the gadgets and stuff I have in my "garage". In time there will be an ugly, ill-fitting swedish plate both front and back :naughty:
