Dude, that looks awesome!

Might need some wheel arch extensions though! :)
Did you get the rev counter working in the end?

Damned fine looking sammy!

2 things though...

1 - Sammies are never truly "finished". You'll find something to mod on it sooner or later... ;)

2 - the wheel arches don't cover the tread, from what I can see. If it's an offroad only vehicle, that's ok (but it's too nice to be an offroad only toy!) but if it's for road use, be careful - plod might have words with you about those arches...

Don't think its a road car Anton.. :)

they may well query his mudguards after they ask him to explain the lack of number plates, indicators, sidelights, brakelights and foglight :)

It's Offroad only !

It's geared to low to use on the road, and I can't be bothered to do it, no real point ad far as I can see?

Anyway il post some pics up of it on Monday after it's all muddy and dented ! :)
