Mikes scratch build

I'm been on the this forum for some years and have had much help from people around the world so I decided to add an build log.
Started to plan of building in 2008.
Februari 2009 I drove to England to collect the body parts.
Windshield was collected at Frank Catt.

Hi Micke,

Very nice work on the fabrication of parts!
The fiberglass parts were off that much?

Good luck with the build!

Nice work also on the heater hose nipples bring oriented to pressurize the feed side of the heater core and to provide a reduced pressure on the output side.
