What a nice evening

Yeah sometimes its very easy to forget why the hell I bother working on cars...

Go out to the garage, its freezing, damp and horrid, usually blowing a gale too

Well not tonight, it was just lovely! been ages since it was this mild and not a drop of wind. Spent several hours tidying up the garage and pottering around tinkering, what fun

Got so much sorted that I feel a new wave enthusiasm for getting the car done in time for summer

Happy days





Fame is when your old car is plastered all over the internet

Agreed it was nice here too.

Ran up my engine for the first time with Turbo on. Retuned with the megasquirt for SD. All wearing my bike shorts.

Lovely bit of tweaking and nice now its warmer.

My bits arrived from PoleVolt, so i should have gone out to get some more wiring done....... but couldnt be arsed. Its still cold though.

Will attack it over the weekend and get all mine done. Ill even take the chop saw to the old chassis to make room for the new garage lights that ive had in the car for three weeks!

Really it would only take a couple of months given the amount of work to do but I notice the cold these day, use to not bother me at all
