Emma: Thanks, Aye its a handy garage/workshop 8-)

Me and the auld yin spend most of our lives in there :lol:

as mum says its not our second home - its our first! :lol:

I thought id be about time for another wee update as alot of you lads n lassies have been asking about the car.... so here goes - bear in mind that not that much has been really done :roll:

Things are gona change now coz I can get time to work on her again!

Taking time off the car has gave us a bit of a break although we were working on mk1 at that time, but its gave me time to save some fookin dosh aswell...although heres hopin the lotto comes up! :lol:

Been collecting some parts for the build so that we will be able to go at a constant rate with all the gear at hand.
Got tension strut kit a few months ago aswell as tarmac spec ally sump guard, also got a nice flocked dash and dial surround from darran at escort tec at the weekend....top bloke! 8-)

Time for pics......
Remember tho my camera aint the best so the colour is not right! :roll:

...she's ford colarado red .

Had her out the other weekend there for a wee wash...poor thing was covered in dust and alloy dust from cutting and grinding! :evil:

Was paranoid about anyone brushing by her! :confused:

So she was pushed out...(ino pushed! :roll:

she will have her own power soon enough hopefully!) for a wee wash.....

Took these pics tonight, she's in need of another wash already! dusty as fook but you get the idea 8)
She's now in a new space in the workshop...next time she moves from this space she will be runnin!

....if all goes to plan that is! 8-)

Got her jacked up and on stands, thinking of taking the princess four pots off and fitting em to mk1 ...

All going well atlas axle will be going on soon as well as alot of other wee bits n bobs.
