tuck the car away and get busy doing the house up mate, with a baby on the way it's going to get really busy real quick, you might have to get some magic lessons from hogwarts to figure out how to stretch 58 hours into one day

hi mate, i have been following your build and i have got to say i am impressed with the workmanship that has gone into this car. everything has been completed to a high standard. i am a panel beater and painter by trade and i have not seen one car on this forum that has had the amount of time and effort spent on it good luck with the build.

thanks mate


well as of today - 22-2-011


offically moved into me new pad , spent the last two weeks getting it re decorated ect ect , missus happy- beef happy ,


even got will pedley staying for a few days lol ( fucker dont miss a trick )


anyway , as per previous post , bumpers were blasted and primered so ready for paint ,

got my valve tools , and now ive a little time , im going to try and get the head reassembled and make a start on building up the bottom end ,


unfortunately , at this point in time barring a miricale ,


i dont think the car will be painted for central day ,

dissapointed is not the word , unfortunately i just dont have the funds to get the work done in time , ( this may change if work picks up , ) but right now my committments lie in haveing the house ready ,



so i do apologise to all the folks who want to see the car there atm i dont see it happening

if little things like buying a house and moving and having a baby and stuff are stopping you making it to central day, wonder what excuse you are going to come out with next?

couldn't find a nurses outfit? have to spend too much time at work?



if it doesn't make it then it doesn't make it mate, you will just have to put a hold on the drum roll and grand unveiling until there is a full 25 page mag spread in the bag

the more i think about it, the more it seems that this car will be completed before it's finally unveiled

i know you want to show of spech's handiwork, not that many will be able to see any of his welds because they look so factory, but a fully completed car would really round off either the first or the last show of the season

so in which case you've got either 6 months, 12 months or 18 months in which to get it all nutted and bolted up

don't rush though, think of it as a pint of guiness

Your a complete utter fucking let down! lol.

Family comes first beef not car's, like you said on the phone its a long term project mate.

There's still plenty of other bits and bobs you can be doing which dont cost to much and save time in the long run.

Chin up ya fuck pig lol! Go grab a parmo
