    Awesome. How come you aren't using any bolt torque yellow paint?

    I don't know how I missed this thread. The link was just posted in the Aussie section.

    Fantastic job. Car looking sensational. I'm really envious that I don't have the skills and connections to do what you're doing.

    Upload to EweToob and then post the link here ...... oh, BTW , at least your missus knows where you've been for the last year :p

    I hope you drive it ... LOTS!!

    The trouble with so much effort is that every dip in the road brings new grief, well done on the effort mate

    Just saw that you installed the steering column on the wrong side. Small mistake on a big project no big deal.

    Hmm... it's definitely on the correct side of the car, hence it's called RIGHT hand drive! ;)

    Having lived in England for a number of years, and driven on the 'wrong' side, as a right handed person, driving in the left and shifting with the right is more natural. I am glad the Americans did not follow the queen's ritual - rebellion at times is beneficial. ��
