Perhaps interior and soft furnishings is not the man's forte. It is a very different ability to metalwork obviously, and it is very obvious from this and previous builds, he is extremely skilled and capable at building cars.

Finance also may have played a part overall too. Restricting it being sent to a trimmer, or simply by doing that would take away from " all my own work". The interior and other donor parts have come from a 4 series BMW. They are not old, and even a scrapped one would not have been scrap value. So the cost md this build is also a testament to its existence. As well as the already mentioned time and effort.

This car is stunning,to think an individual can carry out such a thing of beauty is mind boggling,I think the side profile is nicer than the original concept.

Actually I think this is a work of art, it really is beautiful. A very impressive effort!
