Put some paint on the front guard to check the colour in the sunlight.. a good excuse to take it for a drive round the lawn.
In NZ we have a much less thorough inspection for certification. I should be taking mine in for the check in a couple of weeks.

Looking great there :cool:

Boy, I wish my front lawn was that big :eek:

Might be able to test the clutch on mine :o .... I do have a nice, Semi-private, Tarmac lane at the end of my drive ..... Just over a mile long & lots of bendy, twisty bits ;)

I'm trying to figure out a way to hook up the lawnmower to the back of the car....

wow, your car looks great, sounds nice too :cool:

:eek: as for your garden............around here that would be classified as a Municipal park for public use :D

nice build, look forward to seeing the car with bodywork on.

cheers

The garden takes about 10 hours a week.... the car takes many more!!!!

Started the build in May last year.. great book.. Thanks Chris!
