You might want a bit more triangulation on that frame jammy or it looks about as strong as a digestive biscuit. But I am totally impressed that you have stopped buying stuff and actually moved on from the conception stage. Now enough nice-ness. Get the fcuk on with it!

I do have a team of girls, only they are more of an after work 'relaxation' team! :D

Ali - those coil over brackets would be very much appreciated!! Thanks.

I went to do some more work last night, mainly finishing welding up the passenger side air vent, then doing the closing panel and then the scuttle repair. Didn't get very far! The welding tip kept fouling up, and the wire kept sticking. New tip, all good for about 10 seconds. This added to my cheap rubbish welding helmet that doesn't stay up when I want it to (no smart remarks about things not staying up!!) lead me to smash the dam thing on the floor when the wire feed started playing up! So, new welding lense today whilst I wait for a new helmet, and a new liner before I look at getting another welder!!

Erm, can't remember where I got them from actually. Think it was my local Motorsport shop, along with a jack. They happen to be the smaller of the 2-3 sets of stands I have! lol
