I don't like stainless, too expensive, too likely to fatigue if it's not designed well enough. What's wrong with galvd steel? Nice idea on a show car though.

My galvanised one has a life time warrantee... So don't see much advantage of a stainless.. A galvanise one should last forever?!

...and maybe re-torque his axle bolts, looking at the way the lower skin of the chassis has dished under the bolt heads.

There should be at least one driving around in Holland. Never seen it myself...

With some polish it could look very shiny though ;)
