Thank you all for the kind words

No more pics yet, too busy messing around ... now done the grand total of 16mls !!

Spec wise, I've tried to keep a period feel:
1310 A series
286 cam
2x 1 1/2 SU's
big'ish valve unleaded head
close ratio helical box, X pin diff 3.4
rubber cone suspension with A arms on the rear.
10" minilites
7.9" discs with Fiesta calipers on the front, Minifin drums on the back.
home made roll cage and bash plate under teh gear linkage.

That's about it I think!
