TWO BECOME ONE ! ! ! ! ! !

Well, its been a VERY VERY busy week...........

Ian @ Sportmotive has been a star(again!) and painted my shell.
Then after a few small jobs this morning......



We "popped" it back on.

Sorry about the poor pic quality, strange lighting and a poor photographer








As you can all imagine I am over the fking moon.....
Still a long way to go, but I think you will agree,its a huge milestone.

I would just like to say Thanks publicly to Ian , a great mate and a true TVR nut !

You can ask.........


I was kind of aiming for end of April(chatsworth) but that aint gonna happen, so mid May hopefully.
I am off work for the next two weeks to work on it!

The pic above doesnt really do it justice, will see what pics Ian has on his camera.

I know just how you feel,Ant.I've almost got fed up of being asked the same thing,even though it's only people taking a genuine and kind interest,and is appreciated.It was just nice to be on the other side of the question for a change.These things always take longer than you thought,and far far longer than you want,it seems!Keep up the great work mate,i'll look forward to seeing it

From a man who's been nearly there, you'd be amazed at how quickly things progress once the shell is mated to the chassis again

Looking good

True , only done a few hours this morning and the rad is in, the tank is in and the engine electrics re-connected.

Will hopefully have it running next week.
Oh just a small matter of doors and bonnet/boot then.....

Huh?
How can it take a day?
It slots in and then two bolts.
I aint done the pipes but even then it would be a couple of hours.
