inspiration! (sorry another thread!)
 

hey guys, as you can probably tell from the title, im a little short of it!
been working away past few nights, slowy.. getting my bulkhead pannels to fit and my steering column support tacked on, i think i may have cocked up a tiny bit somewhere but it can be sorted. i just need some of that good ol spirit back! even got me thinking to sell up! now what would be the point of that! this far and what..

would be handy if any guys near by has a car in a better shape than mine at the moment to get me more enthusiatic!

Any way rant mode off!

any cheer ups will be greatly appreciated!

Look at my 1.8 statup vid.. Think of the ROAR of your engine :)

TT

Go to the Stafford show at the week end that usualy helps to kick me up the back side, I have accumulated all the parts to build a rolling chassis I just need the parts that I acctually produce :rolleyes:

ha yeah that did put a smile on me! must be satisfying getting to that stage where its all coming together :)

good idea, just checked where it is :) may be able to kick up on sunday only live 90 miles away, whos going off here? i guess i should look for a thread really haha

Only in spalding if you want a butchers at my scratch built locost, now at iva stage. Just doing the little bits to get it through.

If there's a forum member near you with a running car I'd definitely recommend trying to visit them, seeing gus's running and getting a ride in it was amazing and totally got me wanting to get mine finished :)

sounds ideal! im only in donington. And i didnt notice there were builders so close! haha :D

yeah i agree, its nice to see where you build stands and what it "will" be like . Handy Andys roadster was what has been fueling my drive but i need it topping up haha ;)

Used to live in Donnington.

If you are up this way ....pop in again , am sure a little spin could be arranged ;) , or maybe go & see Spud for a spin in his Roadster, he doesn,t need an excuse to go & play :D

Do you need any new chassis tubes? just with your reference to tacking on the steering column support, if you need some new bits cutting, just shout & I,ll send them down to you FOC ;)

cheers

Your a star Andy! I'm not in need of any new bits "yet" haa! Touch wood! It maybe worth a trip up to see yourself and meet Andy (bigandy) :-) maybe sometime soon? Suppose I'd better get there early as will be speaking about kit cars for hours upon end haha ;-)

No worries :) just shout if you need anything .

I,m sure there,ll be someone local to you to take you for a spin to get the motivation back on track if you can,t get up here , tho you are welcome anytime :) ( mornings would be a good idea :D natter natter natter :p )

cheers
