Well the Sonic kit is finally in the garage. Went to see Paul and Leighton today and picked it up. My neighbour happened to be getting rid of a brand new piece of carpet this afternoon so managed to get that in the garage to help keep me warm  Got to add a bit of draught excluder on the side door and I have a large roll of plastic sheeting I'm going to use to split the double garage into two so it should heat up a bit quicker. Loads of goodies to sort out now, hoping to get out there tonight once the kids are in bed |

It's still being sprayed so haven't got them yet. Should have them next week though so will post some pics then. Saw one of the side panels today and very pleased with my colour choices.
Had to come in from the garage about 45 minutes ago. The wife phoned me and asked if it was me banging so thought I had better stop. Have to finish installing the bushes tomorrow.

Build has been on hold for a few weeks but is now starting in earnest. Got all of the panels sprayed up by RTR and Paul delivered them this evening. I'm very pleased with the colour scheme. I'll get some pics over the weekend and post them up. Got loads of parts delivered over last month all sat in the garage so should be able to make some good progress over the next few weeks. Still lots of decisions to make on some of the parts including, lights, seats and wheels. I want to see how the bodywork looks then I can get a better feel for what colour wheels will looks best. I've got red calipers and the water pipes are also red so I may follow that through to the seats. Thinking of the Dash2 as well but I want to see how it will fit in the dashboard. Trying to decide whether to fit a full tunnel with an upright piece coming up to meet the usual dash. Plenty of time yet Once I get a few pics together I'll start a proper build thread and list all of the lovelies goodies I have from RTR |

What happened to the pics of the colour scheme. Good luck with the build. You'll enjoy it. Mine is almost finished. Just the last few things to do but, as you know, the last 10% takes 90% of the time.

Not fitted the panels yet so only a couple of low quality pics indoors. I'll see if I can get some at the weekend. I also need to get my finger out and start a build thread  |
