Ok 48hr days are normal in wales!!!  , david the shell believe it or not is actually really strong, its mostly the floors that are shot however even though the sills are rotten its still structurally strong, the bracket on the roof of the new car GOD KNOWS!!! looks as if it were maybe some sort of sun visor braket or similar cant quite work it out ourselfes, maybe they had a burrett on the roof and a bunsen burner on the scuttle who knows lol, new floors fit really well, they obviously need work to finish them but concidering how much floor i actually gave bill he's done a fantastic job, the floors are not symetrical as the tunnel differs side to side near the bulkhead , very simple to fit and i'm sure bil would make them for anyone on the understanding that they will need to be fitted and not just drop straight into place, it takes me approximatly 2hrs to get one to fit cutting it down , joggling 3 sides and folding the 4th side , bill has fantastic skills of which i'm hugely envious, i'm going to order another 2 sets for the other 2 cars , bootlid pics are always usefull so any appriciated, well done on your trip and i must say how nice your car looks, its the same colour mine was origionally (and keeping it) so its nice to see what it will look like when its done |

 the aprilia and pickup are in filler, pickup partially primed (shell) and the augusta is in grey prima and hopefully being painted on friday (blue) hears the challenge, the augusta is booked on the sliding pillar rally so really speaking i have 4 weeks to finish it and a couple of weeks testing it before the event

Certainly looks like one - and a wise move, too! Regards, John |
