Out of the garage at last.....
Wanted a quick tidy up in the garage yesterday, so at last she rolled out into the day light.
Swept out garage, cleared a few things away, and put engine stand next to work bench to allow assembly of engine. The fingers crossed engine and box
go in!!!

Looking smart there Andy,the Zero looks like a
good bit of kit.
A zetec and type 9 will fit lovely in that hole.

in the second pic.
Had you just spilled something?

Yes mate, just swept up a load of bits of old rivets, screws, swarf etc and dropped the lot again. And that was because the wife said the garage
looked messy and wouldnt take photo's of a mess!
And as for the wife Warren, she had to move her car too, as she parked in front of garage as I took her space in front of house.!!!

Nice, like the parking brake
As I've seen on some other Zero's will you be having rows of rivets visible on the outside?

Coozer, the sides are riveted on top edge and underneath then bonded at the sides so it does not look like a battle ship!! The one thing that
initially put me off was the rivets, but the factory never put them there so neither did I!!
As for the back end Blake, not made it yet, its still sitting in the garage, going to do is once the fuel system is in, in a few weeks time, just
makes it easy to get to things.....
