It's in...

Finally got the new engine in . All ready to go except I forgot to charge the battery so waiting on that before starting her up, fingers crossed!

Was hoping tomorrow but:

- Battery needs a charge
- battery should have enough charge to get at least a slight turn of the starter but nothing... So need to figure out why

Other than that good to go.

Stainless steel monocoque ;-)

With the problems I had with the anyone I think I might actually cry with joy if this one starts easily!

Of cause.

When i picked her up




When I got her home




Turned around and now with lights(or eyes as swmbo calls them)




Then after deciding to give up on the existing engine I started taking parts off...










Almost forgot, then there is "The vision" this picture keeps me going, it's the screen saver on my phone and is what I hope to get it looking like when finished.
