I can show you pictures if you really want... Nappies full of what can only be described as mustard with 'cranberry jelly' is what I am living through right now.

Neil, please feel free to inform us of anything else going on up there

 

Something like 'there's a pile of fibreglass junk abandoned in the corner of the yard that Foxy has told me he's not touching until 2016..."

Lol! I'm sure he'll get round to the other bits of VX lying around the place once mines finished. Nearly there

Just got back form Foxy's. He's buried in plastic body panels Both mine and yours are coming along nicely Andrew. Paint should be going on next week. The underside of my bonnet is painted. Jeezus it's bold. Started her up for the first time with the full larini decat and back box. Oof! About as good as an ecotech is ever going to sound

Mystery machine will be rolling soon then

It's gonna be the best it's ever been what with a proper respray so you don't see the old colour when you open the engine cover

[Crabash]

I still think orange wheels for the full on mystery machine effect though.

I'm not discounting that idea completely

So, looks like the brake lines are corroded coming out of and I presume going through the sill. Is the only way to change them by cutting into the sill?

[vocky]

if it's the rear section then there is a join behind the petrol tank.

 

Otherwise you can simply run the new pipe along the inside of the sills, no need to touch any bodywork.

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

Put some charge cooler pipes in there at same time 👍

Lacquer going on today

[siztenboots]

nice bit of Polyurethane Varnish, something that can take a knock

[rob999]

I'm guessing it's going to look like the C4 cactus. What do i win?

[Acidpopstar]

I've been singing along at the top I my voice to the Stone Roses first album. I got teary eyed at one point, but that's another story. However, it must have been a sign - because Foxy dropped my car off just now It looks absolutely STUNNING!! Totally vindicated in my choice of colour despite 90% of people thinking it would look sh*t. Even Foxy has done a U turn now the wheels and trim are all back on. He loves it. I'll post pics soon but I need to tidy up and clean the wheels and things first. Oh, and it sounds monumentally epic!
