What a lovely car, 5 stars for me. How many speeds does the heater have out of interest?

thanks for the comment. To answer your question the fan has '+ & -' so only two speeds, but it does turn off too. does off count as a speed??

Come on lad, get those snaps out :)

I love the colour!

Right I've taken today and tomorrow off from work so its full speed on, had a good and bad day.

Good things,

-The grill got painted

-Did some more work on interior

-The rear doesnt rub

-The front doesnt rub

-The bumper light got fitted (thanks Vic)

-The bumper end that had a hairline crack got fixed

Bad Things

-On adusting the back i burnt some paint off the arch :-(

-The seat needs to be dropped to the trimmers

-The car needs to go to the paint shop in the morning, and i have to get them to turn it around within the day

-Not even started cleaning the car

So there is a big mountain to climb, and i wonder to myself 'Tej, you knew you were going to Edition, why did you leave all this too the end?'

al fun and games

oh here is the grill

Quick update why i stop at home, i was up at 7. Car is definatly looking more likely to be finshed now then this morning, still loads to do and the thing that is so strange, i live near kingston and I've been up to Wembley and back for two days in the polo and I've not seen anyone!

anyway I've got loads to do and IF it all works ill be leaving here tomorrow to get to the show around 1pm, set up the tent and get the beers cold.

So if you spot me (its orange, you cant miss it) wave and once at editon come and say hello!

right well I'm about to leave for the show and i thought on a nice leaving note ill post up a picture, not a silly close up but a proper glimpse at the car, or course if you want to see it all you got to come to the show.

Safe driving everyone and ill see you up there!
