Getting so close now. Few more days and fingers crossed will be ready for the rolling road

Wow !! If this was a drop off and collect a few month later conversion i wonder what it would cost? 

The reliability was all that scared me about a v8, i remember seeing 1996 v8s for sale at 16k many moons ago but still worried about relability, this is the solution (other option buy a mustang od course but they dont have pop up head lights)

All booked in for Monday for rolling road. Mot has been done and car has now done 6 nervous miles. All gears work and nothing fell off so hopefully all will be ok on the rolling road.

Great to meet lots of people at brands Hatch over the weekend.  Car is getting better and better.  500 mile round trip with no real issues. Great chatting to bibs and doing the parade lap(s) too.

Well done

So pleased to see this car finally grace the British roads again.  Well done for seeing this project through from fantasy to reality, many dream cars never get finished.  Love the way the whole family is out to see the maiden voyage as well.

Been having a play around with the data logging and dashcam and found some really nice software to combine the two. It's called dashware.
