She's coming along well, Phil. But if you think that's heavy, wait until you get the body frames! It's another fortnight until I can get home to put the last 2 month's worth on mine, but just having both issues of the body frame screwed together is another weight to be reckoned with. It's increasingly apparent why the shocks seemed so stiff at first. For a wonderfully curved lady, she's not half packing in the pounds! [lb, not £) Current Builds

I have to admit I'm genuinely tempted to make a start on mine.
It's looking really good.

Nice work Phil, looking good. 
Did you know that the late great Colin Chapman of Lotus Cars fame helped design the original road going DeLorean? In fact, you have to admit that it looks a little similar to the Lotus Esprit? The one which Roger Moore drove up the beach and threw a fish out of the window after being beneath the waves in "The Spy Who Loved Me" and which was being designed by Lotus at around the same time as the DeLorean was taking shape.
