Looks great, once it is all pieced together you will be wanting to head for the highway, good for you.

Spent the last few days putting her all together. This summer I finished up most of the wiring, worked out some engine bugs (broken oil pump shaft 
) , installed gauges, rear shocks and mounting points, and gave my best shot at setting up my power steering but ford brackets still leave me scratching my head. And here it sits, ordering my rims in a few weeks. Putting on the grill tomorrow so I will add some pics then.

That is a richards shandy, beer with a bit of lemonade, great when it's 32C and baking in the sun.

Thanks everyone. Still a long way to go as I have a list as long as my arm to get it on the road for the spring but I sure am happy with how the exterior turned out. More pics to come in the near future.
