Wow.
Have read this from start to finish over the past three days, and I'm amazed at the hard work and effort you've put into this car.
Truely an inspiration for me to start on mine.

Out of interest, so far how much has all this cost you?

One shouldn't dwell on the cost.
It's a labour of love, a hobby, an education and a way of attaining something special.

I have a spreadsheet to keep track of the amount I've spent on my car.
I could have bought a brand new Ford or Vauxhall by now but I've got something far superior. hate-king

A new 4th gen' Prelude back in the day would have cost about £24,000 AFAIK, so anything less than that and you're a winner. Wink

Pushki is spot on.. Cool

I have a record of how much i spent on the car so far and i could have brought a brand new small car Shocked But i rather open my curtains every morningg to find a Sport coupe outside and have that goood feeling... Twisted Evil

Whilst i could probably add it all up, i'm not doing, i'm think that including the purchase of the car, it probably stands me around the 5k mark, but, as said, Pushki77 has and understands the right idea on this Smile

Here's some experimental shots from earlier tonight, i guess more to prove i've got front foglights Razz

Here are some more pics i took today, i missed all the sun i'm afraid, but some of these are quite good anyway.



Here's the manifold fully wrapped and with everything burnt off so the colour has darkened.




























I'm not one for any stickers on the car at all, but i think this is subtly nice.

I'm afraid not STK, i have them, but the front ones do not fit over the axle, awaiting some larger ones that i'm going to have to have sprayed up at my own expense Sad

The car is looking great Dave, some nice pics there too. Take some more of the night shots with the fogs, perhaps at a car park.

That's a bit crap about the centre caps ain't it! Oh well, your search for perfection never ends it would seem!!! Mad

Your's and Rich PA's recent posts on this thread made me chuckle, right lil buds you've become! Compliments about looking like famous actors n' everything! Laughing

I take it all back, your car looks s**t Dave, complete waste of time, money and effort. You should have just scrapped it instead of exposing us to your endless updates and picture whoring Rolling Eyes




































or maybe I'm just a little bit jealous
