First Drive

Yepeee, Finally had my first drive around the farm behind our house. You suddenly realise why you have spent so much time/money and effort into it
Also suddenly realise a few things that need to get done soon, such as fitting dash properly so it doesn't rattle and make/fit exhaust bracket and fit passenger seat.
Also the brakes and clutch i think need bleeding a bit more.
But on the whole WOOHOO

And oh yeah, i forgot to say. Forward gears are working fine but i cant get reverse to work. Am using a extension from rally design and it feels like its going in reverse but nothing is happening when i come off the clutch. Anyone else had something similar?

Got reverse working in the end, just quite hard to do it every time.

Got rolling road provisionally booked for 5th of July but might delay to 7th if i can find someone who can tow it then. Those extra 2 days will be crucial
