Well it was a monumental day today (for me at least) as the owner picked up his DC! As with any major build with so much custom work, it will come back for a few tweaks in a couple of weeks, and also so we can check over everything underneath....but for now it was nice to see the owner so happy. It ...

Well, bloody hell its been a long time between drinks (i.e. updates) again, seems time slips away awfully quickly when you're having fun ;) The DC is still not quite finished but getting very close. So here is a pictorial update from the last few months: Love them or hate them, we wanted to be a lit...

It's been a while between updates, but work has progressed fortunately….including paint on the interior which was body colour (metallic schwarz) but with PPG matt clear over the top to tie in with the leather. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Project%20DC/Aug20%202015%2010_zpsesla75k...
