Hi Ray, Nice job on the front clip, looks sweet! It's usually the most difficult aspect of a build ... designing the underpinnings to function and look cool. You accomplished both very well.
Keep up the great progress.

Very cool! One day I hope to fabricate a Aston Martin DBR1 on an old TVR chassis. A full size buck has to be made also. But first practising to get my skills up.

Very nice detail. I like the subtle beats a lot. How did you fold over the ali at the side of the panels so clean? Beatroller?
