  4. thanks mate thats ver kind of you to say so :) ....you've not seen it up close though lol!!! .... but in seriousness I'm really pleased with it :)

    in some ways I would like the underside to be colour painted and look factory ....but thats a whole different ball game!, I'm happy its solid, respectably tidy and well protected under there ....or I'll never get it finished!
