Yup its a really nice motor wasnt sure I was doing the right thing always been a cossie person but DDA took my fancy also so much fun to drive, may not have the same power as a cossie but it puts a huge smile on my face oh and a look of horror on the neighbours

Goes to local RS specialist tomorrow just to check everything is running fine before Aberdeen show.

It is very tidy but there are a few jobs that need done to keep the car alive for a long time to come and while Im at it I feel its best to just take time and do the job proper Also its mostly underneath I want to tidy up and best way to do that is to strip it and get it on a turning jig for easy access

Thanks for all the kind comments going to have a couple more weeks fun before the rebuild begins in anger

Lots of new bits starting to arrive so hopefully I can get it completed before end of summer as I would love to have her ready for national day.

That is verra nice, Fraz. Just one question, what's a DDA? I'm not familiar with the model.

Might just be me, but I'd leave it alone for a while, and drive the heck out of it!
