The spoiler is a custom job he did himself. I know Allan cut the original spoiler in two and widened before he had the bespoke Westfield decal made up, it was possibly a BMW one originally (I've slept many times since that particular WhatsApp update! 😂). He did the same with the rear arches to fit the 10" wide Image split rims. He was struggling to find arches to fit his new rims, so took normal FW arches cut them down the centre, extended by 50mm with fibreglass, then prepped them and then sent them off for paint. Lots of bespoke touches on the car... little things like LED indicators set in machined holders in the original windscreen upright mirror mounts. He's very good with fabricating to say the least!

eggontoast Posted August 14 Posted August 14 Naturally! Lego House was enjoyed more by the girls (6 & 2) though I feel, and was where I saw this lovely old Volvo. Week in Billund and week in Copenhagen. It's been super. Denmark is lovely. 1 Quote

There goes my chances of a 2025 calendar entry 😭 I have to agree, some gorgeous camera work. I'm guessing they were not taken with a smartphone? 1 Quote

All my photos are taken with my smartphone, admittedly it's the expensive S23 Ultra but nothing out of the ordinary. The sensor and lens technology in modern phones are really superb, they have so many settings that you probably don't even know are there. I'm still playing around with different angles and settings..... lots don't work! 😂 Here's a few extra ones. Love this one I took of a Lola T70 at Donington A couple of recent shots at Toybox Ferrari 246SP (one of only 6 ever made) I spotted at Donington Again at Donny of a 1954 Lister Bristol Amusing one of someone praying at the racecar altar 😂 7 Quote

Rob Hunter - Club Secretary Posted August 16 Posted August 16 Spotted this yesterday so it would have been rude not to pop over for an hour or so to represent the Club. Great to see a few members come along with their cars so hopefully we will get a few of them in the next edition! Jack was there to do a feature on Toybox and also the grey FW they have for sale. After he had taken a few shots, he took the car for a quick test drive and seemed to really enjoy it. I then offered to take Jack for a quick spin in mine as he'd not been in a MegaS2000.... he got to experience me giving it the full berries down the lanes, hopefully he enjoyed it 😂 While I was there, I also managed to snap myself a few arty shots with the trusty phone 8 Quote
