[Mick O'Malley]

This morning, flushed with enthusiasm for my new project, I went down to the already scorching cave and pitched in. First job was to remove the huge, and to my eyes ugly, front. It's a beast!



Next, out with the sumptuously upholstered seats .



Then the rear end gubbins.



Followed by the attack of the panel saw - very satisfying - halfway there...



Once the other ghastly bloated front wing/headlamp was excised, I popped on the now svelte bonnet to admire her new open wheeler look.



I stowed all the bits removed in my own shed and called it a day in the blistering heat. A decent start.

Regards, Mick
