    Stefan, be careful not to get the panels hot with that sand as they will warp.

    Looks great as usual. Getting closer to driving......

    I for one, can't wait.

    Cool Stefan I had no doubt you had skills, you guys from Sweden seem to all be born with a silver hammer in hand.
    P.S. We don't mind your poor spelling, but please stop writing steering-"colon" it's spelled column. I know its a weird spelling, but trust me it's correct, less funny but correct.
