Big up to Omega0684
MASSIVE thank you to Omega0684 for coming over to mine for the whole day yesterday and helping me FINALLY get started on the Indy! Great sense
of achievement at how much we got done, even with me throwing a spanner in his plan when I said I wanted to paint the floor with anti-slip paint.
:p
It's these types of kind gestures which makes this place (and community) special!!
MikeR - you better get a move, I may now actually get further than you with the build!
We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

Mike are you building anything? I thought you were running the largest old ford spares centre in the country???

:-) some people may think that i run an old ford spare parts storage / holding centre over two sites. This is, err, a, err, side effect of my err, ok,
i'm a hoarder who's pretending to build a car to collect more bits (got 4 more wheels on way to mates tonight and was eyeing up kitchen
work top in a skip) :-)

you big me up like that and then don't post the photo of my handy work! disgraceful!
and i think the 2 hour to dry none slip paint which actually took more like 7 hours (and even then it was still tacky) looked class! although it did
through a huge spanner in the works! All in a days work though

as for the non-slip paint... you should see it today, it looks awesome.
