Jon I would love to take you up on that kind offer.

BUT all my attentions will be focused on getting this re-built as quickly and properly as possible.

I will still be going to all the shows to further my inspiration etc. :D

I love building them just shame this time I kind of got thrown in the deep end. :lol:

Love this car, followed all the updates in fast ford last year and couldn't wait for the full feature, Also saw it at ford fair last year in all it's awesomeness. Really feeling for you pal but at the same time really looking forward to seeing the mad ass monster you build this time round.

I went to Croft at weekend so no work was done, I also had to postpone the paintshop until this coming Saturday.

Progress will spread quickly then after next weekend.


As it stands today... I managed to sneak to garage today for 5hours.

What rot !

There is not a single hole anywhere.
Had some surface corrosion around the seatbolt hole on the rear bench that sanded off.

The manky looking bit at front of the footwell is that blooooody underseal which is yellowy takes forever to shift.
