Just started a new build from a Hawk body ,kindly sent to me by Gordon .I don't have a before photo but it appears in a post of Gordon Lash ups .
Stripped the paint off using brake fluid which worked well and then primed and painted it RED not ORANGE .I was lucky that Gordon had fitted the glasswork as Hawk kits don't have any ,so I was able to used those as patterns for some new ones ,Purchased some wire wheels from Pendles which set it off nicely ,also got a VAC formed interior for it but had to grind out some oak beams from the inside to get it to fit .More to do but pleased so far
