I'm not gonna talk about it too much as I'll waffle a load of shite and bore you all to tears. Anyway, pictures apparently say 1000 words so here goes.................





































Right, I'm off out to the garage to carry on. More pictures when there's some progress worth taking pictures of.

Hey Jon, cool project! Are you aiming for a race look car, or do you have intentions of competing in the 2cv race series?

Cheers Neil, the aim is to get my racing licence at some point and race it. But in the meantime, I'm planning on using it for things like work and 2CV camps etc.

Whose will be lowest, mine or Russ'? So long as I don't have my own version of his "Bad times"

Just a few more random piccies;



The shell with rollcage I bought from Derek Coghill. I did the 600 plus mile round trip in a Freelander (without breaking down!) in 16 hours!



I'm looking forwards to seeing this welded into the shell but the shell needs more work than I thought.

Awesome! I doubt if anyone could experience that amount of 2cv related 'bad times' in lifetime, let alone a single weekend!

Spanners style progress tonight. I got the shell out of the garage, swept the old bulkhead into a binbag and put the shell back in the garage the other way round.

This weekend will hopefully see the drivers side rear arch, boot floor and seat box welded up.

Then, it's time to cut out the manky floors, weld in the inner toe-board then the cage can be fitted folowed by new floors!

It's getting too exciting here in Spanners-land

More work today as I braved the cold and spent a good 8 or so frostbitten hours welding.

I've finished the boot floor, O/S/R inner wheel arch and "C" post and the rear seatbox. I've just got to tidy it all up and then it's rollcage o'clock-whoop whoop!

I didn't take many pictures as it was too cold and I was shaking too much.




It looks like I'm gonna have to have a wash tonight too!

Good work Spanners! You need a shave too by the looks of it! you locked yourself in there Caratacus Potts style?

Nah, no shaving at the moment-that's my winter coat for the snow!

haha. i had a hari cut on tuesday... wish i hadnt bothered. its snowing here!
