if the Pendine bike event happens again in 2014 then a freshen up of the Saltster, do what is needed to get Bill the T coupe up and running and make a big dent in the 26T/ model A hotrod and if all that happens then get the Pop back into the workshop and start to finish her!!!!

What bodyshell are you after? Pro Laminates do model T Fords, (turtle deck & touring), model As, model Bs, Austin Devons & a few others. Good quality but pricey. http://www.pro-laminates.co.uk/fibre-glass-for-hot-rods-and-classic-cars.htmlPop Browns do model Ts, as well as lots of panels for Ford Pops. Also quite expensive. http://www.popbrowns.co.uk/Or my model T body came from Karma Kustoms, (I bought it 2nd hand). http://karma-kustoms.blogspot.co.uk/I'd also suggest taking a wadge of cash along to the NSRA, (National Street Rod Association), swapmeet at Essex Arena, Purfleet, on the 2nd March '14 as there'll be several 2nd hand bodies/project cars there. Pro Laminates also have a stand there. Sunday 2nd March 2014 Arena Essex Raceway A1306 Arterial Road Purfleet Essex RM19 1AE http://www.arenaessex.comhttp://www.nsra.org.uk/index.php/j-elements-mainmenu-26/southern-swapmeet- |

Keep your eye on evilbay. Not only for second hand ones but there is a firm in N Wales that puts up bodies occasionally, cheaper than Pro Laminates. Cant remember their name, sorry. Also perhaps, build your own.
