Last few tonight, I'll maybe put some more up tomorrow covering slightly bigger areas? Only if you actually want to see it that is ...

I didn't want to comment incase I'd missed something.

Has Russell made a fastback too?

I asked Russell to upload some images as im unsure how all this works... ive been busy collecting/picking up the prototype and road testing today. Speed tested up to 90mph during very windy and rainy conditions. Product is rock solid, no leaks, great visability all be it a little wind noise, but considering there is no sound proofing or headlining and its the first time it has been on the road im extremely happy with it, it a real head turner so i look forward to showing it on Wednesday at the meet.

Looking forward to your feedback.

I sooooooo wish this was my project, it's on my hit list but it's a bit too big for me to take on and Andrew has been thinking about / working on this for probably a couple of years? As Andrew says, I'm just posting a few pics ... which means I've seen it and you haven't, ha ha ha ha ha :loser: :lol:

Thanks for the positive comments!! I'm thinking the same thing ... this is potentially one of the most interesting developments for a Mk1 MX5 that's come out in years ... and a prototype of it will appear for the first time at a Phoenix Fives meet ... not boring in my eyes!!

To appease the impatient people amongst us (and I know I'd be one if I wasn't in the loop :wink: ), here's a couple of overall pics of the fastback, I need to stress this is a prototype so the design will change here and there... I think Andrew has already decided on a few things, but I'm sure all will be explained on Wednesday.

It looks even better in the flesh, see you all on Wednesday!
