First drive and breakdown today!!!

Finally got my first legal drive today. Car performed flawlessly right until it ran out of fuel

Couldn't get fuelling right without the standard bike airbox and filter fitted so I was forced to go "Mad Max" all day. Rust streaked bare metal body, unpainted fibreglass and no bonnet

Still grinning

Was going to take it to Coatech in Carnoustie, I'd forgotten about Trailer Refurb, they did a few lorry chassis for my last work and were pretty cheap if I remember rightly.
