We should do sommat like that on here...

Would be cool to have restore sommat..

Did that tax exempt chassis go on ebey?

Well I've got a cold at the minute, so if someone wants to come and do some welding on my RRC for me, then let me know!!

That's one of the Lotus clubs I'm sort of a member of (it's web based so I don't read it much, and missed the whole restoration thing). I was there at the presentation, wondering what was going on, and they did do a fantastic job on the car. The chap himself almost ruined it all by blubbing all over the car but thankfully the weatherproofing was up to the job ;-) It was a very well done thing, he plainly didn't suspect even in the slightest.

All they have to do now is buy enough butter to get him into the car, he's a big chap!

He's just phoned me to ask where we keep the paintbrushes at work - so something is happening....

I'm just feeling a bit down and my RRC needs new footwells, inner wings, and front panel.

Any advances on that?

Oh, and any ideas where the hell I get a complete front panel for a RRC in the first place?

Use a 6" roller, it's way quicker.......

I meant it when i said the other day that i will help with that axle!

Its either 3 or 4 weeks now then i have some time off :) You will however have to machine me some bits and bobs up in return to help me to get this new engine in my car!

p.s. just bought a 3.9 v8 engine ;) Not going with the auto box right now cos im too skint and the engine has only happened as i appropriated a bonus from work!

Reassembly finally began tonight. It must be four months since the welding was done.
