yes,I know,it has been a while,

paintjob is taking now 9 months(I will have a small 3000 s with the body when it returns,no??)
in the lost time ,managed to get the Wedge decent again,waiting for the paperwork to get it to the MOT,
when the body returns,the weekends will be verry long!!
maybe I will have a thirth TVR by the time the 3000s returnsbiggrin

Good luck with number three. It seems to be a growing family ... or a nice addiction.

Well only 6 days before your reference???? model leaves hehe so better crack on or take lots of photographs.
Looking forward to the great unveil looks like you will be the winner in the race to finish but you never know Graham is working away hard i believe.
