I've been fannying around somewhat this last week with birthdays and drinking and sha.... You don't need to know.
Anyway, Taffy and Tev came over last Tuesday and we lifted the shell off to do the few remedial repairs that were needed.
With that done and the tank, fuel pie, tank saddle and brake pipe all fitted, we lobbed the shell back on. Then, I did bugger all until Saturday!
The Saturday saw me and Lou sorting out the running gear and bleeding brakes etc and, I "drove" it for the first time since May 1998! It felt good even though it was only 12 inches forwards and 12 inches back again.
Urm, I spent a good few hours in the garage then on Sunday sorting out the ridiculous ride height and fitting the shocks and an exhaust and a few other bits and bobs. Then, did sod all again until today.
It's got electrical gremlins thanks to having been stood for soooooo long. I've pretty much had to disconnect every single connection on the car and clean the terminals-booooring! But, I now have a full compliment of working rear lights and wiper motor etc.
So, I'm getting there. Maybe I'll do some more tomorrow.........
