I'll put up measurements of the headlights when they arrive Dee.

Rear lights are 6" diameter and 3" deep.

Bonnet latches are 3" (79mm) long x 1" (28mm) wide x 3/4" (19mm) thick. (sizes in mm is accurate)

I take it you are going to sculpt your car like Timb and Bill.  When will you start?

Soon as I get the doner back from the Garage (next day or two I hope). Currently getting the turbine mounting fabricated out of stainless steel and looking at materials for building the buck/body (remember Chins car?)

It's the last week of my holiday and I want to get started before I go back to work (not much free time when I'm in school)

Did somebody say "sculpt"... 

Alright, you have my attention again.

So tell us more.  What medium are you going to use?

So you're planning to make the actual body rather than a plug to take a mold from?

I'm with Tim, I live for this kind of stuff!  Definitely keep us posted and take lots of pics!  Are you going to chop up a model or 1:18 to scale up the body or just eyeball it?
