Been busy having a great time, made some good progress, sorry failed to update. So here are a few shots that you may have seen on the Facebook europa pages.

Is looking great! I really like the black window trim.

Looks great! What size tires are you using?

[Bainford]

You are on your way to a beautiful Europa. I'm living the look so far.

[shortjedi]

Thanks guys, the window frames are powder coated as they were pretty rough.
The wheels are 15" 185's front and 205 rear.

Have you had any problem with the front tyres hitting the wheel arch on half lock or more?

My 185/13s hit the fibreglass on about half lock.

The body shell is new and I had to move the rear of the arch back about 1" 1/2 at the sills to clear. Hopefully it's enough, won't find out till I finalise the ride heights etc.

[Clifton]

Looks good. I love the black frames too. Is the shell from Banks? Did you get the hood there too or did you duct it?

[shortjedi]

Yes both from Banks.  I  have to say what a massive job it's been.  Nothing fits on a new shell.

[lotusfanatic]

WOW! what a superb colour! (the black frames look really good against that colour too)

I hope the project is moving along more easily now you've fitted and modified the new body shell?

It's coming along nicely now. Lots of shiny detail bits to do. Eating cash though.  Next big cost is wiring and instruments.
