I guess you could use the smoke film to cover them.

I guess you could use the smoke film to cover them.

Didn't think of that. But you are right.

Just got the gear shift, steering wheel and wheel centres delivered. In really happy with the quality

Those are the things that make the difference between a low market and high market kit....the finishing touches

Lovin' it more and more every pic received. You've pulled off an exceptional plan and covered those most important smallest of details. Congrats Anthony on a job well done. What's the little lady and bank saying now?? JIM

Wife and bank manager are not singing my praises yet. I think it will be a slow burn on sales. Next month there are three feature articles in kit car magazines. One in the USA. A front page in one if the kit car mags. Also the official launch at stoneleigh national kitcar show at the beginning of May. So I guess I will have an idea after that. At current capacity I can only produce 12 kits per year anyway.

The eBay advert has about 100 watchers and 6000 views in 20 days. And the website gets on average 50 views per day from unique visitors. 65% from the UK. And 15% USA. So that is encouraging.

Either way I doubt i will be quitting my day job. This is an expensive hobby, but I would love to see hiw far it can go. And try and make some of the money back so I can develop further projects.

Personally, I don't see where this could fail. Premium car for a pensioners cost, can't go wrong. I certainly will keep watching your progress. Best of luck with the reveal!! JIM

Looking forward to seeing it at Stoneliegh. Pop over to the Tribute Automotive Owners club stand if you get a chance. My Z300s will be there in black.

 

[Anthony Cherry]

I will hopefully catch up with you guys on Saturday when we are setting up. Feel free to pop over to my stand and say hi. I'm sharing a stand with kit car magazine.

My 321bhp Z3M has had its Bertini kit fitted and is on its way to the paint shop to get a nice metallic red makeover! Hopefully all sorted and ready to sit on the stand at the National Kit Car Show at Stoneleigh. Plus my leaflets have arrived from the printers. Really nice and thick quality with a few high resolution shots on the back.
Getting a bit nervous for the launch next weekend!!!!

Hang in there guy!! Nothing to worry about!! Wish I was there for the excitement and celebration!! JIM

 

[Anthony Cherry]

Cheers Jim. I sent out 50 press releases to motoring journalists in the uk this week too. I guess I'm feeling even more exposed to the critical eye of the public. It's all good because I'm happy with the car. I guess it's just crunch time. After next weekend I will know if I have a business or just a couple of very expensive Z3s. Lol

Good luck Anthony with your business venture.
I hope I'm not being too political, but the economy is picking and people have more money to spend on frivolously things most of us work hard to buy toys, and why not that's what life is about , enjoying it
I must add that age also enables you to have toys, just in case I rattle somebodies cage

Big moment for me and Bertini. First front cover
This month the car is featured in both 'Kit Car Magazine' and 'Complete Kit Car'
