Cool Nice one Sam

Great to hear news of your progress Sam, you must be well pleased

We have had some nice sunny weather recently, it cetainly makes you want to get on with the build .... Green with envy mate

Re your back brakes, is it possible that you have over adjusted the handbrake cable a tad !!??
Might be worth backing the cable off a couple of clicks, give the car a quick spin & see if it is any better

I've had a look and the handbrake is nice and loose. I think the calipers have jammed on. Why, I'm not sure yet. I may have to just replace them.

Well done mate on a day like today and us newbies are still fabricating brackets etc it gives us hope... and makes us green with envy

Good effort, next time I'm down visiting the folks in Wales I'll have to give you a shout
