Great colour, what is it? Paint brand?
It seems more and more racers popping up these days.

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.
What a great read.... Front to back, this build has gone extremely well.... Not a fan of aero guards at all.... That minor crit aside, the car has progressed so well in such a short time, it's a bloody credit to your efforts..... Look forward to the engine and transaxle build up and of course the fire up!👍👍
more progress on the fuel system

engine & turbo system progress . the turbo system is the system that was manufactured for my formula vee , we fit the system to the engine and discover that it would be better to rotate the entire system 180 degrees for my beetle
