Hi Ian I've been a bit tied up at the moment included are a couple of pics you might be interested in....you will notice that all the edges are wired with 1/4 inch wire   and that the rivets are all solid Haven't got much time to prattle on...So this is week seven approx for the time spent on my car.... Johns has come to a stand still due to work commitments.  Check out the brass nose.....In the photo it looks too big but trust me it extends the original lines very well.  I  didn't get a copper  section as Phil forgot and some said JUST get one wheeled up out of brass..JUST is a bit like "If". and  for those  who think its just as cheap to have a nose made........ trust me a copper one from a hot water service is Very good value......Mine was made by a fellow who was trained at Aston Martin....and I watched him for three days and he didnt stop....and there will be at least another day to finish it of ...4 days in all .but it will be perfect.....multiply  that by 20 quid an hour....owwch.  Just got news from the engineer that he made a mistake...Great.....:( seems I cant run the 2cv engine as it is a car engine and needs to meet emission levels and it wont in its current form......unless I run it on gas .....so it could be the first gas powered Pembleton !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Talk soon….. Regards Peter
