Long time coming, but it finally has a wof :) . Anzac 2019 is when I picked this shell up. Last time I drove it was March 2020, drove it home from the dyno after getting the fuel rescaled for bigger injectors (800cc). I reused alot of stuff off the crashed car (including the front bumper), and used the doors and front right guard off my first SW20 which have been in storage since 2011. No build thread for this one, it's basically a copy of the last build. It's amazing what a polish can do for old paint. There are still a few small issues to sort out, nothing showstopping though.
