Paul....full uniform...you gotta do it..
Alex...mostly exposed.
Fozzie...it was tempting to carry on to the Shack....
All.....thanks, it was an imporant milestone, there are a few minor things to look at, and of course it needs finishing, but there is light at the end
of the tunnel..

That is so neat! Congrats Alan. It looks great and should get great fuel mileage to boot.
I'll make sure to drink a few pints in honor of this occasion!

Thanks all for the encouragement even though the drive itself was very encouraging...

I am very honored to be one the very few to have driven this fantastic car.
Got to drive it yesterday on Alans private road, it drives very well.
controls are easy to hand and the gearshift is great. Throttle response was very lively and gives you a good shove in the back when pressed.
I had a big cheesy grin on my face when I got back, really enjoyed it.
Cant wait to drive it on the open road and track.
If I hadnt got the MK to build I would be building one of these.
maybe next time.
cheers Paul
oh by the way we had to sit by the pool and have a couple of beers to cool off when we had finished driving the car......................bloody hot
