Finally after months of if's, and's and maybe's my mate has finally sold me his part finished Indy!
It has sat unfinished for 2 years in his garage (long story told elsewhere on here). I was T'up North over the weekend and we finally agreed
terms.
I am so excited I could pop. Now all I have to do is get it back to Kent!?
some pic's here that I put up on my website. Please note These are not in the public area of the site so I haven't built any links to the
rest of my site (in case you where wondering):

Congrats, the car looks almost finished !
There is a lot of trim to finish and given it hasn't moved for 2 years I'm expecting the worst and praying for the best!
Thanks for the offer of help. I may well be calling

Mine sat at the front of a garage for longer... apart from replacing the front brake discs and pads that all i had to do. Oh and battery !
SVA/IVA trims my speciality ! Mines going off for its retest next friday so i know exactly what's needed.. now lol
Looks Good - Lucky man
Welcome to the madhouse! Youve finally joined the club.
It looks a good one... Wash it carefully (gently) with LOTS of warm soapy water. That dust will be well stuck on. Let the water soak in for a few mins
before rubbing off.
I have a black car, and it shows the dirt and scratches more than any other colour. But it looks the dogs danglys when polished up. Take care not to
scratch it too much. (I also use the black coloured polish, it helps)
Looks like there isnt too much to do. Wont be long before its on the road.
Get a copy of the IVA manual as there may be some bits to alter (it was built to SVA standard) before testing time.
Also can you put your rough location in your profile, it helps others if offering to come over to help / see / sell / buy etc.
Will it be on the road this summer?
