Still loads of little bits to do, as you say it never ends..... I very nearly went for the leader on eBay at the weekend with the idea of building a more "comfortable" version with a more relaxing drive. (Something the missus might enjoy a drive in the country in) but fortunately it went beyond what I was "allowed" to spend. I say fortunately because, as I said there's still plenty to do on this one........like replacing the exhaust manifold gasket that I burnt because I failed to tighten the bolts on No3! And it's now leaking :roll: and getting a new temperature gauge as, having replaced the sender, the gauge is still reading well below what's really going on. Thermostat opens at 88deg but the gauge doesn't get above 60. :(

All good fun
