Got me all excited there...
Lenny is in Wales isn't he? He posted about just getting his kit recently.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I'm in wales, Swansea.
Still looking for my perfect kit not sure wot to go for, or how much work I want to do.
and still gotta learn how to weld properly, havent done any in years since metal work at school, and even then I remember my teacher describing it as
bird poo!
So where are you based then???
If at first you don't succeed force it harder!

Same as you mate.. A Luigi Viento. Black and Polished Stainless. (Shudda saved the money! - See below!)
Got some of the brake pipes in today.
Got the wings in the loft, and hope to get a LSD axle tomorrow.
I had already got a set of Drums, diff, and shafts, only to find out they recommend rear discs, and you need different uprights for drums. 
SO... I have decided to get Disc's all round. (more blinking unplanned expense). Shudda got a Donor car in the first place
Also found out the Sierra front uprights need the bottom taper hole reaming out to fit the Maxi ball joint properly. Found that out when I picked up
the chassis. Damn and BLAST... as they would have done it whilst I was there.
I think I may need another trip to Looey Agoe's, at least they are decent people...
Got it Saturday, and only done 4 brake pipes!.. but I did make them up all myself.
I will get it all done eventually. I had hoped to have a rolling chassis with the engine in by now!
Its going a bit slower and the wind from the notrh is blowing straight in the open side of the car port... Brrrrrrrrrrrr 
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
Geoff
