So far so good


Lifting it into place was alot harder than I expected



But we got there in the end!!

Still got some extra bracketing to do,and then I have to find some polycarbonate sheeting.(Apparently Wickes have a special deal on at the moment,so I will check it out tomorrow.)
Cheers for now!!

Hi all. Just to let you know,I have finished the brake pipework at the rear of the car,and am waiting for my master cylinders and flexible brake hoses to arrive. I have also sent my front calipers off to biggred to be remanufactured.Cant be too careful with these things. I have also realised that rain is not my friend. And that building a kit car in your back garden has its down sides. My £60 car cover is ripped to shreds,and there is a permanent pool of water in the footwells and the centre tunnel,despite my best efforts at bailing them out whenever it rains. Also the brake disks are a nice shade of bright orange,and it is only going to get worse.
So I think it is time for phase II of the build area development. I am making a 4m x 2.5m car port which will extend out from the workshop and accross the back wall hopefully providing a much better enviroment for car building,especially as summer is over. I t will provide me some lighting possibilities as well for the winter months.
I will post some pics soon.
Cheers for now.
