Drove past the old Qik Brix trailer and co at Narangba yesterday. Thought you might be going to pick the beastie up...

Whereabouts Sam, might have been coming back from the tip I think??

Pickup is slated for Xmas time, when it should be complete and I have time to take a week off to go down and pick it up!!

I have Leonidas to keep me busy, so dont worry if you think I'm getting bored....

Cheers,
Tricky

On New Settlement Rd and the Bruce Hwy, I was in my little red polo gti.


Can't rush a good thing!

Tricky,

I honestly have to admit that i love this car, it looks awesome

Are you able to make subframes for roundnose mini's still?

And do you have anything against Kiwi's lol

Hey Sam,

Yes, coming back, or going to the dump!!
And I agree, all things in good time - it will be ready when its ready I guess - up to others now!! How is the Polo, like it??

Hey Cuzzy Bro,
Nope, no offence against Kiwis at all bro!! And yes, I am still doing subframes for round-nose Minis - just finished doing one for a G13B in fact. PM me if you like...

Oh, and I thought since you love the car so much, here are some more pics from last weekends action:

Boot painted:


Engine bay painted:


And then they took him out to get some sunshine after being cooped up for a few weeks:




Nice and shiny, and its not even buffed yet!!

Enjoy!

Cheers,
Tricky

Never mind the car, that concrete looks good!

I have tried pming you a few times there mate, and it keeps failing, maybe failed code in forums or smtp server i think (techo talk lol).

Love the pics, car looks amazing.

PMs are working fine, everyone gets the bug error but they still go through.

Gorgeous paint work .

Many thanks guys, I really appreciate the feedback (as long as its all positive )

Seriously though, all kudos goes to Graham and Hallsey for their stupendous effort - I'm just the ideas man!! I do hope to replicate their level of detail and finish on the next one though - but for now I am but a grasshopper learning from the Zen Masters!!

Insomniattic - Nope, didnt get any - PM sent to you with personal email address - try me on that!!

Cheers,
Tricky
