Ian. Sorry to see your cars in bits. Is it undergoing major work? Will it be ready for the spring? Got some new front brake pads and engine mounts to keep me busy over xmas. Knew I should have put rads in my garage!

Hi Craig, I know, she does look a bit forelorn in that photo!! she looks even worse now; on axle stands on my drive ready for me to de grease the chassis, that is when you can see my drive what with the weather we are having Not sure if all the work will be done by spring as got lots to do, chassis to paint and waxoil, in for a respray at the end of Jan (with a guy who does work for Racing Green) then i have the engine to concentrate on for a few months, and finally all back together bounce
I can recommend the calor gas propane heaters, very toasty in my garage!! You will have fun doing the engine mounts, if you havent got one, get a Steve Heath bible very usefull. I have a copy if you want a quick look, Cheers!

Ian. Got the Bible on order. Tiling the bathroom today, so griff is playing second fiddle. Sitting there waiting to be driven. With the weather like it is, its just enough to see it there. Like you, I don't mind getting my hands dirty. I used to make Aircraft parts but now I fit Kitchens,Bathrooms etc. It's nice to work on something thats not made of chipboard! I would like to see your car in bits. May be I can pop round and have a look in the new year. Have a good xmas. CRAIG
