So I'm already starting to get withdrawal symptoms from working on my car so I went out and took the rocker cover off and started to clean it up to re paint it. During the build and from when I painted it about 18 months ago it has got marks all over it chips and dust and I had a small oil leak and they have all be bothering me. So as iv got a bit of time waiting for my papers I thought now is the time.

So I couldn't resist any more. I just got of the phone from the DLVA and the paper work is going through and it is apparently "up stairs" with the licencing department to give a Reg number and should be back tomorrow. Anyway my next question was can I ring up on Friday to have my number and he said yes it should be there by then to give out. Happy days I might be on the road this weekend fingers crossed.

So had a little spin yesterday after work and was good fun. Any way the video has finally loaded up nothing special. I migh get a bit more creative as time goes by.

Did you build the chassis yourself or buy one?
