Thanks Red appreciate your comments

Hi XAF i would guess at about 50-60 hours of labour , I have two apprentices who have been involved with the Puma led by my technicians. It has been a really rewarding job to see it come from where it was to the nearly finished article

Massive thanks to Co-ordsport one of our sponsors for the front and rear wheel spacers along with some service parts... Cheers

Rear bumper mock up , Top half is the original Puma bumper and the lower is off a Fiesta . These have been welded together using the Nitrogen plastic welder. The bumper will be filled using plastic filler as this will give added strength. I will add more images of the filling and preparation...
