It's finished!!! Actually, that's not quite true, I've still got to replace the O/S sidelamp bulb (got loads at work but none here!) paint the front wings cos I don't like them covered in white paint-it looks shit and then MOT it.

I've even done some polishing on it!

This'll be going back home on Saturday so, at last, I get my garage back!

Woohoooooooooooo

so it's passed its MOT?

Erm, no. But it will on Friday assuming there's no massive brake imbalance-that's the only thing I can't check at home.

Yay, it's passed although it failed first on emissions!

With them adjusted, it was plain sailing-just got to deliver it back to its rightful home in the morning and then the racer can go back in its rightful home. The garage!

congratulations! great work, & another one saved!

Nice one mate, that was one hell of a job you had there, think he'll be over the moon with it


Edit-Have you given the paintwork a good going over? I know you said you didn't like the white paint on the wings and stuff. Get some photos up

Before.............



After................

Excrement!!!!.....Oops!! I mean Excellent!!! It doesn't look to be the same car.

Ouch emissions is the part of the test i actually hate. The rest is fine. Mot soon on the red 2cv of ours
