Red face my motivation

my motivation comes in the form of my 5ft 1 wife,she only has to shoot me the look and hey presto im well motivated.

Half way through my build the garage (next door) that i was building in was sold with the plot and i was evicted, i only had a driveway at home so in this weather nothing was done, I did erect a gazebo when the wind was down, wore lots of layers and when my hands and feet gave up I would take bits inside and work on them there, not to much dirty stuff (but there is still a clean head and cam in the utility room) but managed to wire up a complete megajolt, edis and coil.

It's a miserable evening here, but I had major motivation when I got home.

The last coat of paint is on the chassis

To me, it is a major milestone, and I was keen to hit it, which I did.

The next big thing on the agenda is to start on bodywork.

I have the bits to create a rolling chassis, but am leaving it up on the build table for ease of working.
