I had an email from Chris yesterday, she'll be ready this month - which
is not big hassle, as I told them to take their time with her and fit her
in around other jobs - Chris informs me that he's done some of his best
work yet on her too!

Cant wait to see her now - getting quite excited! Big Grin

cool! (dont post any pics on here tho!! ) :wink:

I'm confident that Chris and Darren have done a fantastic job on Flopsy,
it will just be so weird seeing her all pristine rather then looking like a shed! :lol:

Enjoy your new car! Big Grin

I shouldn't worry - she's still in bits anyway!

When Chris said he was doing "some of his best work..." what he really meant was he was "doing his best to work with..."! Big Grin

The body panels are being repaired off the car, so not much to see right now until it's all assembled.

hahahahahahaha PMSL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers Darren, dont worry, I'm not rushing you Smile

I know when Chris appraised the car in 2006 he was abit concerned
about the damage to the 'A pillar' of the driver's door, so I know that
he's got a lot of work to do - every other panel on the car was damaged,
and the accident last year kinda gave me a full set of dented panels! lol

Just as long as all the scotchlocks are removed....... :evil:

Hey, do I get a certifcate of scotchlocklessness Big Grin (is that a word? lol )

Big Grin ITS FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Big Grin

There is a small pile of scotchlocks waiting for you - there may be a few more hidden away under the centre console or in the foglight conversion - I haven't looked!

Car is pretty good actually - it just wanted a good cosmetic overhaul. So what's next after the bodywork?!

hahaha, you guys crack me up :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually, Darren, there probably are scotchlocky horrors under the centre
console and beind the dashboard Sad

Basically, when we get her home, I'll fit the venturi that Darren Bowker
gave me and then tune it up the way NickT has told me to do it (ie the
same as RichH's car), and then *hopefully* the car will finally run better.

Fitting Dan's old exhaust definately helped matters, but NickT's diagnostic
equipment clearly showed at Eurotec last year that the venturi is the cause
of the seemingly endless running problems with the car.

Fingers x'd!!

NP Tourettes, I'll let you know when we're coming down (will probably
borrow the flatbed from work as Flopsy is SORN now) and you can get
the kettle on Big Grin
