Default Spikehaus First Tear Drive!

Just wanted to share another major milestone in my build today by driving the car for the very first time!

Before you ask Handy Andy, the video camera was at home, but I have plenty of time to sort out a video on the next occasion when I have sorted out the niggly problems I undercoverd. Plenty of photos uploaded onto flicker of dad & I.







Snagging Items:

Locking nuts require on steering rose joint
Book designed steering rack mounts flex while turning. Re-engineer.
Possible hydraulic clutch required as it is very heavy.
Secure padded seats
Fix nosecone and top radiator mounts
Camber requires setup
Install offset mushrooms to correct self centering
Bleed brakes again as still spongy
Alternator rattles on chassis
