Thanks, I was worried but it turned out great.
It kind of has its own charm - not perfect by any means. The stamped leather ran short so there are a few random patches here and there and some of the stampings at the edges of the hide are not that deep, but they had to use them. I actually quite like the effect. I do have enough leather now to change a few panels but we will see. Maybe it will remain as is.

Thanks Johan, and others for the kind comments. It was a great project putting it all together and now driving it is a fantastic experience. Summer holidays down here and 5.30am blasts every morning up in the hills followed by a coffee at Mt. Maunganui beach. If I'm early enough, I get to park it out front and just admire.

Back home for a short while and a chance to work on the long list of minor tweaks.
1100 miles so far and not much to report. Goes really well. Very fast and easy to drive. It has adjustable Koni's and these are set to full soft. This together with the 195-65 tires transform the ride and it is really comfortable. Three hours continuous seat time today no problems - the seats turned out just right for height, rake, size and comfort.
