Plans are to recover fully from my back injury then get started on the car again. Ricky V a good friend of mine did all the driving and loading for me. I just signed paper work.

Stiffy ,what door handles are you going to use??? I still am not sure if I will keep mine.
Ha Ha similar story. The car looked bad with under body exhaust, no windscreen,no paint and very quiet. As I left, a garage fly said "that car would look good with a roll bar and a paint job (der) and the engineer (That just passed it) added " and sound better with side pipes !"
My smile grew that little bit wider.
