Couple of weekends should see that one finished.....

My list of to-do on the Strat copy

Stop the fecking blower belt from shredding/jumping off. First priority this bit......

Fit some better rear brakes. Some parts on the way, some work required to complete the design then fit. Probably take me a month or more..... Brake balance/performance has been poor from day one. Been living with it, but finally got round to putting it right with some advice from those wot know betterer than me. Interestingly, it passsed the SVA no bother on the brakes. MOTs never a problem either. Hard to believe given an 80/20 front rear split...on a mid-engine RWD car.



....and on the Westy. Tax it, put the battery and put some petrol in it. Drive it. This will be it's 20th year on the road since I built it.

My list is:
New front end after my badger killing incident :s In the middle of sorting this with Westfield.

Then its the elimination of exposed screws/bolts on the outside of the vehicle, so thats:
New rear 1/4 windows to be bonded in and new polycarb rear window to be bonded in.
Oh an a new bonet badge.

Fantasy upgrade: Honda power.

Cheers Rob- I've learnt a lot from your blog. It's the first MOT in my ownership and I might have to tap your knowledge offline...
