Yoiks!!!
 Build Cost £2576.65 Jumps this month to.... Build Cost £3608... with a few more quid to add... still I get 1% back from my credit card on that jump! At least the only big bill after this is the IVA, and the way things are looking I could be racking up a stack of overtime over December and January which will all go to the Roadster fund. TT

At the end of the day it would have got spent anyway, all that's different is a few months of lost interest in the old bank.
Will be nice to have some shiny shocks and GRP  TT

Well I wanted minimal welding having spent most of the last ten years doing welding to restore my sierra.. And there's another one to do..
So I had to spend on the Chassis & Bones. And a full body set, and shox. Most times I have waited for a bargin. Projections show a further ~900 including the IVA. I did not have a doner to generate money from , and anything from my parts bin has been allocated at a reasonable price. TT

i have somehow managed to offset the cost of my roadster so far (£1900ish, rolling chassis(ish) and new zetec) by selling all the tat iv bought over the years on ebay. Mountain bike here, rowing machine there.... you know the story.
What i am shocked at is the way iv wasted thousands on shite that just ends up in the garage. A few lessons learned there, at least im going to end up with something amazing in the garage in the end. Although alot of my build is actually in the living room at the mo Devorce is on the horizon
