ok peeps , work on the shell and parts continues ,


the postie brought me a nice package today



and who was it from ???



custom washer bottle tank





and my new custom header / breather tanks









the mounting plate is removeable , there going to be mounted where the battery would be ( see i know that boltable battery tray would come in handy ) , and hopefully the washer tank will go behind the drivers suspension turret ,

should work work for my ideas for the bay ....




have to say a big big thanks to philram , he bought them from fudgeys project , and i got the heads up before he listed them for general sale ......

to say the quality of them is pukka is an understatement ...

Beef, when my first daughter was born the midwife asked if I was going to cut the cord. I said of course!
She then said 'Are you sure, because new Dads are usually a bit emotional at that point'

'I think you'll find I'll be just fine there Doris. Now, go do your thing while I stand here and be manly' was my manly reply....


5 hours later. The same midwife had to guide my shaking scissor equipped hand onto the cord becuase I couldn't see anything for the fucking floods of tears streaming down my face

Same with the second. I swear both times I was fine until the cry!

Baby comes out. I'm fine.

Baby opens its gub and waaah waaaah waaaah

Rab also goes waaaaaaah waaaaaaaaah waaaaaaaaaaaah


Oh, pro alloy stuff looks very nice too....

Congratulations, and it was nice finally meeting you at RS Central Day at Pod (Northants Ford Fan's GF).

Nice to see the car is coming along nice, even with just having a little one. Hopefully this will continue Hope to see the car at a show soon with the matching baby seat

Pro alloy gear and a baby. What more could you want? I think the Pro alloy gear looks better in black too (interpret how you want).

Congratulations on all fronts

I bet, but realistically, its not really taken that long has it. The fab work was done really quickly once you guys got cracking, you had time to deal with your job and have a kid in the middle of all of it. So its a pretty worthwhile build, built during some life changing times for you. Never let it go bud

Can I donate some fluffy pink dice to put on the mirror? The one's on my wife's car are pissing me off
