Doesn't do much for it's looks either.

don't know, we'll see what it looks like once finished. Unusual to build it out of metal.

have people seen the one trev D is making out of metal? now that is one impressive roof..

Davey D - 11/1/10 at 08:57 AM

Once its all finished and painted to match, i think it will look good. Looks a little Donkervoort'ish

Confused but excited. - 11/1/10 at 01:57 PM

OMG!
Not sure if that spurs me on or makes me want to give up.
That has got to be the most beautiful seven iteration of all time.
Bet Colin Chapman is looking down with a grin a mile wide.

Trev is a true craftsman, he does it for a living too recreating and rebuilding some fantastic sportscars.

He's also a nice bloke too!

hmmm... makes me think an ali Flintstones hood (screen to roll bar) wouldn't be too hard to do?

Hi Craig, You're such a gentleman. I do have some more photos which I must upload into my archive. I can't seem to find the time to work on it at the moment but it will wait and it will be finished. I'm glad you guys approve of what I'm doing to my car. The seven is not an easy car to get a good looking roof on it. I hope I succeed. ATB Trev

That looks well smart Trev.

I take my hat off to you.

Looking bloody fantastic so far Trev. It makes me drool and green with envy at your skills every time i see it.

I cant even do a basic hardtop had to resort to a soft surrey top.

However when we move house will have bigger garage so will print pics of your car as inspiration and get on and make some doors

I am but a short trans Atlantic flight from you Mr. D. I'm sure you would like it here. I have a garage heater.

Trev D - 14/1/10 at 08:10 PM

How tempting is that

Bring your coat. And a sweater. And gloves. And boots. And a toque. Long underwear is recommended.
