Thanks Richard. Those of us with builds in the pipeline always wonder what running changes are being made.

Small correction. Mine was built at the beginning of 2016. Well... completed at least.

And mine was supposed to be unloaded off the ship yesterday at Charleston, SC and couple days thru customs and I'm just sitting here sipping on a bottle of Merlot waiting on "the phone call from the dealer in Charlotte" to head his way to pick it up. Stressful !!!!!!!!!! Any suggestions?

Thanks Richard, will get a build number from dealer tomorrow. Also has chrome pack, black exhaust and heated seats ! Should be able to spot mine, has Aussie specs, so moustache air intake, roll over bar and an excess of rear view mirrors ! As promised, a photo of yours today. Don't be fooled by the incomplete look - a small issue with induction manifold was noted needing correction. Should leave the factory tomorrow (Friday) for shipment.  Intrigued by the non-standard timing cover. In the meantime found my car just seven hours into the build, pictured with Lee the guy that will see it through. Should be ready for collection end of next week.

Wow Wow Wow, first time I've seen my 3 wheeler !
Many many thanks Richard. The non standard timing chain cover is an Australian mod ? I know we end up with a "moustache" on the front.
Great to know our cars were built together, I bet you get to drive yours before mine as well, Grrrrr.
PM me if you have any other pics, I'll give you my email.
Once again many thanks. I gave the wife and dog a fright this morning when seeing your post, yahoo !!

Ok... So what's the black hosed cylinder attached to the left side firewall under the bonnet? Also, you said black pipes, but all I see is black tape around the header section of some stainless pipes. Wuzzup?
