Welding is done now, only the roof stays original, the rest is new (were possible original) bodywork.

The rear wheels are like that because of the missing engine at this stage
I'm already working on it for about 4 years now, and it really is a lot of fun!!

Great project Nico ! The progress is very interesting..
With the 3d modeling and real life rebuilding you must know this car inside-out now !
