    Thanks Ash! I'd say these kind of arches are better in a Galant but everything is possible. If the other mods to the body are at the same level with the arches why not?

    Thanks Mike! It is in the paint shop at the moment and there's still a lot to do before it's ready for the paint. Soda blasting was a really good way to get rid of the old paint but at the same time it caused few secondary problems which we had to solve now. But it'll still be ready for this summer and I can't wait how it looks when it's painted.

    It's been a while since the last post but lots of things has happened after that. First of all I had to remove all the paint I sprayed on it after the soda blasting but it was something which I needed to do and to be sure that rest of the work will be perfect. Now we are back on track with it...

    looking top notch! cant wait to see it all painted and done. those front guards look like something off a DTM race car
    also as c0xxy said, id like to see what this would look like on a legnum. the rear arches would be much harder to pull off and not look out of place.

    It took quite a time to get there but few days ago we finally got a chance to spray black paint on it and check how much work there still is. I'm happy to say: not much if I compare it to where we started. Of course it still takes some time before we can spray candy red on it and it's ready to the show room but it's getting better and better all the time.

    I have to agree. It looks like you will have a very unique and head turning car.

    Thanks! When I was thinking about the color I had two colours in my mind. Black or dark candy red. It looks really good in black but I have good feeling about the other colour.

    This is the best pic at the moment if You try to imagine how it looks in your rear view mirror...

    That is a thing of beauty. you are a very talented man both designing and the hand skills to put them into reality. Every time i look at it it makes me smile, cant wait to see the pictures with her bonnet on.

    If ever i win the lottery i know where my bodyshell is going and my engine would go to Adam Findley.

    Truly awesome. I think with that in your rearview i think the cars will be getting out of your way....
