.... and as if by magic:









Looked absolutely stunning when I saw it on Sunday and had some very interesting mods. I seem to remember you mentioning the inboard handbrake as well as a completely rebuilt engine to a high spec.

Have you been using that special polish that was brought from this part of the world Mr. W.? Looking very blingy all round, more so than I have ever seen it before.

Hi Mark,

I saw it last Sunday too and it's really nice, the inboard handbrake Saggy has made is awesome along with all the other items of bespoke fabrication.

Btw Paul has driven you old car home from mine and he is looking forward to getting it out in the Spring.

P.s. He still talks about how you scared him on the test drive in the snow ..lol
How's the new one shaping up?

Hi Yan,

Sorry I couldn't hang around long, I felt guilty dropping in and dashing off again. I'll be back...!

I like your steering wheel. I was thinking of doing the same as the seats are a bit tricky to get in and out of and the wheel does get in the way. Any pointers on the best bits to buy would be appreciated.

Paul,

What wax.... ssshhuuuttt uuupppppppppaaaa. I clay'd it and gave it one go with resin polish. Before we go to the secret destination I will fine clay it, enhance it, polish it and then use the slightly more expensive than average wax on top. Then it'll bling.

Mark,

Don't think I've met you but please don't think this was easy, one of life's forks?... yep a big fork up by me really and when you finish you look back and think... yep the missus is right, I am mad. But I'd do it again....

Hi J,

No worries I haven't been for ages either, I plan to make a few more this year.

Regarding the wheel, I have several bits left over if you are interested, I bought several of the snap off kits and bits over the last year, including I a 30mm solid spacer that is unused,
I experimented with the fit to get the spacing correct for me which is why I got through several combinations until I got the correct fit. I have also done the Chimaera, it gives me a load of room when the roof is on.

If you are interested in any of the bits or want to have a look, let me know.

Cheers, Y
