Conversion is awesome, but the outside really needs to be abit more special IMO. Don't take that the wrong way though, it looks good but I do think it would finish it off nicely

Car's looking good mate, as the other Tom said - very understated on the outside but not so on the inside

tomo ive got my engine and everything just need to make the mounts up. i no where to get drive shafts and the downpipe im going to get a mate who fabricates to sort me out. A work mate used to do coachwork stuff so im hopfully gonna get a engine mount off a polo and the mount of the engine im using and mate them together. i just wounderd where people get there mounts from if they have theirs made as it could save time messing around. cheers

Yeh but that can also be achieved with simple and effective modifications.
