sorry - six smileys edited in....

Craig! thought you had given up the ghost and flogged it less IVA due to trying to prove engine age / emissions / fitting an inline cat / buying a mobike / going to medical school / etc - no! ISTR you actually selling it (IVA - less) for £5750 ish then having problems getting the guy to pay up or something?

Now here's you back with the beast all finished, on the road and having such a personality that all other cars fade into a blur.

So - fill in the blanks for me?

hi guys,

yes instagram it is!

Steve, yep I really did go through all those lumps and bumps but the car never (completely) sold. I was able to spend an hour or so here and there on it over the last 12ish months before the red mists descended then my old man (part owner) decided to fund one more IVA.

Managed to get the examiner in a good mood, and nothing fell off so now its "done" (although covered in ridiculous amounts of rubber trim and electrical tape).

Not sure how long it will stay with me, but at least I can say I've built and finished a kit!

Brilliant Craig, I hope my Rush looks as good as yours. Financially you won't regret it. It should be worth serious money now.

Well, welcome back, Craig! As you have said "at least I can now say I've built a kit car and finished it" (even though they are never 'finished'

That is a great achievement at your 'tender' age.....now go, enjoy, and BE CAREFUL (ish).

Regards, Steve.
