The camera is between the lights at the top (middle of canopy) just wasn't mounted when I took picture of the back end earlier.
Wish you could see it in flesh - it's pretty impressive to me, especially when it started as a rough drawing, pile of steel, sheets of propeller plate, sheets of composite paneling, boxes of lights, camera, door handles etc and some tins of paint!!
No doubt he'll find things he doesn't like or should have done differently but that comes with experience - for now it's exactly what he wanted :)
Yes he did - colour code is the right one but colour hasn't turned out to be :( he's disappointed about that.Quote:

All done for now - mudguards will have to wait till next weekend along with propeller plate along the bottom edge (have to get them recut - were too wide) and a couple of other minor things

Very Very Very Fancy!!!
That looks good. Do you happen to have the paint code? I didn't realise it was that different. The colour on the canopy looks closer to the colour of my ute. Makes me wonder if brads has had a respray sometime in its life as I'm yet to see another that colour.
Looks bloody smart though top job. What are his plans for inside it?
Looks great! What was your reasoning for having the spare on a swing arm?
I agree, looks fantastic but was wondering the same thing about the swing away? The Telstra pods have them mounted to the back and the drop down for convenience, not sure why you need to swing the wheel off the back wall?Quote:

Awesome job, looks bloody great! And the colour looks like a close match but not metallic if a clear coat was sprayed on too early or on a humid/ wet day it will dry cloudy and look like a matt colour rather than metallic.
