It goes forward, backwards and stops

[Enoch]

Well, my propshaft arrived from Dunning and Fairbank today, it's a beautiful job with an incredibly well machined adapter plate. It fitted perfectly and was incredibly simple to fit.
I still don't have a complete cooling system thanks to the faffing about of a supplier so could not go far.
I did manage to reverse down the drive, stop, turn it off, leave it for a few minutes and then put it back in the garage. So I guess I can say I have had my first drive
I made a few observations eg, it's too low, the pedals are very close together when I have my trainers on and driving your own car even on the shortest of tests can create a stirring in the nether regions
I hope that I will get my radiator hoses tomorrow and will be able to complete my cooling system and give it a proper test. I will update my build diary soon with all the gory details.
Best and all that,
Enoch
