Here's my project... Gill's buggy. I think it has tremendous potential.

As you can see, the gear lever and pedals need to be set back in this buggy. The gear lever wasn't and the pedals were done rather badly. I decided to cut the whole tunnel out, and re-arrange the bits where I wanted them. I sourced another tunnel from a rotten pan and cut it up to make good pieces. The hand brake is going right up front because the buggy has a bench seat and the hand brake needs to be one of thos under dash jobbies.

Ja, it's pretty vaaked. But, more plate and a willing welder, and we're off like a Jewish foreskin. (this should not be taken as an anti-Semitic remark, it's not)
