Awesome Zephyr! Its gonna be a sweet ride once shes done. Is the green one yours too? They're such a good looking car.
I'm hoping to 'inherit' one from my uncle. He has a couple on his farm out west. Fingers crossed there!

Nice one m8, really cool. It sounds awesome. I do have to say something negative though. Please don't be offended ! Those engine mounts ! I know you have the engine in now but I seriously sugest you redesign those. I can see those ripping the original metal where they are welded. I think you should maybe strenthen the chassis & then weld the mounts on to the strenthend section.
