Yipidee dee-da yipidee day, my oh my what a wonderful day!!!
Well, I guess most can probably guess by my jovial subject that it turned out all right in the end!!
And most of all, that was almost 100% down to two really super blokes - No surprise who they are, but yes - Mark and Colin  
We did have a couple of teething problems today, and as we were steadily working through them - Colin went to get the trailer out and "found
it" not there!!! some theiving fat bar steward had borrowed it, but the guys boss quickly (read guiltily) offered his 7.5 tonne(r) for us to use
- all well and good until you see the tail lift that my car would never fit on - so after getting hold of a couple of ramps that were inch perfect
we got it loaded - If you look in one of the pics below you will see how the ramps overhang and therefore add a bit of "the italian job"
technique to the on/off loading!!!
Well I'm not typing forever as it has been a tiring last few days, in fact it's been a tiring past 3 months during this build!
Cheers to all involved - and I will be mentioning names of thanks in a more appropriate post tomorrow!
Kind regards,
Steve.

Well done there.
A bit of drama aswell just to make it more of a day to remember.
Make sure you get some copys of the MAC because the DVLA pinch it.
Steve.

Still reckon you could have built it in 2 months if you didn't take so many pics. The colour scheme is a personal favourite, I think the new ZR
Worx will be the same colour. Get some pics of the car with the roll bar diagonal fitted. Well done that man,
Mark

took the dummy bolt out of the roll bar tonight and fit the diagonal, but without the lights suspended anymore it was too dark to take a pic!!!
looks the danglies though!
you know that this is the colour Mark, but you have to admit it looks best with that extra diagonal!!!
Steve.
ps - "your" vodka is now about a third of a bottle!

Steve - very well done. Im chuffed for you. I have to admit when i saw the car last week i thought you didnt stand a chance of passing an MOT let
alone SVA....
ONLY JOKING!!!!!!!!! Car looked awesome. Only had half an exhaust hence why it wouldnt have passed at that point in time
Im pleased you had a good experience.

Nice one Steve, puts a large smile on my face even after the "stress" on Monday. All in all an excellent result, how I laugh about the
speedo........the extra magnets were on the desk at Notts SVA on Tuesday, so I donated them to Martins box of bits just in case someone needs them to
get through the SVA, hope you don't mind.

No problem Mate, in fact the less I see and quicker I forget about them the better!!! And thats even when you were helping with it more than I
was!

Oh and Jos - get it on mate - I think mine looks quality - will be spot on when I get the screen pods for it! and in case you are wondering, I used a
dinner plate & permanent marker for the curves that I cut out of it! but it's (sort of) OK - I covered it in cling film first so I
didn't get a bollocking from Mrs worX!
