got the starter connected up to the key today, and had the engine croaking over a few times. No fuel or ignition system yet, but i hope to have the fuel hose by the end of the week, so maybe soon eh??!?

In fact if the prop arrives as planned, i may be dead by friday

oops, thats not cool

I've seen the way you drive.

No it's not cool, but it could be accurate.

rest assured hippy, i aint going anywhere til ive seen your car finished!

(and if that doesnt hurry you up then nothing will...!)

As nuts as you are, I'd rather not wish you gone...

I don't think anything could speed this car build up

you'll be reet hippy, just need to get started. first car wont ever be perfect in my books, thats what i think about mine anyway, but progress is very fast nowadays. When i joined up here october ish i was asking about how to use sierra hubs, now its nearly finished!

chin up and all that..!

Hell's bells, Joel, either the posting OR the building, standing on its own, is an outstanding accomplishment!

After you get the car done, maybe you could look into getting some Ritalin

I'm with the Hipster in the slowpoke category, but don't care TOO much. I have other stuff to do first, anyway, and every month that goes by I learn a little more. It's been a year since I said, "Go", though, with not a piece of metal touched.

Maybe I'll build a fake car to help my credibility. Y'know, sort of like the Apollo moon landing

Nice one Joel i should have mine a rolling chassis next weekend and the engine, gearbox and diff etc in a week tomorrow

Well as I've said in other threads and to you in Messenger Alan there are plans afoot, but the plans are gonna delay things a lot.

Difficult keeping enthusiasm.
