Spent this afternoon preparing the car for its 'big' day - I spoke to my neighbour earlier today and have arranged use of his trailer to bring the car home on wednesday! That meant a small panic to ensure that all was ready. I assembled the front hubs fully and torqued them up, then fitted the shock absorbers. That meant drilling out the mounts on the lower wishbones as they were too small (I got the pre-made from e-bay) - I think that they are made from titanium as they were a *** to drill. Job done now though! Ended up lowering the car onto its own 2 wheels for the first time. My 'little helper' immediately leapt in and had the privilege of the first journey - albeit 3 yards pushed backwards! It feels like real progress, just to get it onto 4 wheels at last, and it felt great to sit in it at the 'proper' height! Well, now it is coming home, there should be a few more regular updates so keep looking!!!
