First drive, only five years in the making.

Ive had an hour on the locost this afternoon and managed to have a little go just as the wife got home from work, so I dragged her along aswell

So its now a car and every thing works.

In the morning I will change the oil and filter.

Its then time to trim it up for iva and put the non functional finishing touches to it.

Good effort!

Not sure about the colour though

Green ones are obviously faster...

looks nice. Where are the upper seat belt mounts going?

I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

Are those head restraints good enough for IVA - seem a little low for any real use.

Well done there, although you should have attached the camera to a bicycle handlebar and given the camera boy/girl a better chance to keep up
