Not taking the car down :( to stoneleigh
mangogrooveworkshop - 29/4/10 at 09:28 AM

Just had to accept that we have run out of time. As well as the setback of the new diff not fitting the side shafts we are all out of steam.
My health not being the best doesn't help so we resigned ourselves to finish the last bits when we return.
The other thing is we haven't put any shake down miles on the car. The last thing I want to do is sort out niggles on the m6

Dave 1881 is in the same boat so will just tintop it down to brum.
We are planning a Scottish tour to give damdy cash a good send of before he transfers back to germany....

So it get all the parts we need this weekend and finish it next week

And there's me knocking me pluck out to try and get it back together in time ( I will!).... I'm very hopeful, not throwing in the towel still with 2ish days to go!

I have been burning the midnight oil, and worked last night straight through, but it has been worth it, I now have my VIC approval and MOT cert, just need to tax it and I am on the road again. Started the rebuild on 22nd Feb, and the car was away for 2 weeks being painted so 6 weeks from a chassis to a car, I am well pleased.

Stoneleigh here I come.

Regards

Bob
