I'm a happy bunny - just driven the car out of the garage for the first time ever and spent a good hour whizzing up and down the alley - even the wife had a go!

As is compulsory - vidoes below

Whoops - try the links again - hopefully fixed now.

Well done, it's a great feeling isn't it, the first time you drive a car you've built yourself.

Congratulations.

Well Done Mate.

So jealous though. I wish my missus was as interested in my car! You should know how lucky you are mate!

I've had my Indy two years now and my missus hasn't even sat in it yet,(calls it a waste of bloody money!)

Congrats,

Can't wait to get to that milestone.

Thanks everyone - was a fantastic feeling as it set off.

I'm very lucky that my wife is very supportive of my build. She's even been busy with a wire brush and the paint bursh at times helping me She even jumped out of the car yesterday and said - "can we trailer it to a track day"
