One talented gentleman!! A younger man that's knows how to use the English wheel, WOW, how rare is that. The limited budget racers back in the day, most ran American Torque Thrust & Goodyear Blue Streak Sports Car Special's. Always thought they looked "Just Right" Thanks Jeff for posting, Cheers Tom.

Very impressive job, as everyone else has already said. I am flat out impressed with his English Wheel skills and overall general fabrication and assembly skills. His car is something to be very proud of.

I noticed he managed to also get the turn signal lever on the left-hand side of the steering column. That's got to be worth at least a couple extra atta-boys.

With all the good work and attention to detail, I am surprised he chose not to use Smiths' gauges. That said, I still love his finished work product. Flat out beautiful!

I'll bet he could find a home at Kirkham's if he ever immigrated to this country. :)

Wow, just wow. Much respect for that builder. My metal fab skills ( skill might be the wrong word) consisted of building some heat shields and brackets, his skill set is in another solar system. I do hope he gets to do it again and teaches others along the way.
