Wednesday - Part 2:
Finally, I took a couple of my flip up bonnet while I was at it.





Still lovin' the fact I made these hinges myself.

My Forum Awards:
My car would never have reached this key milestone without the help, support & encouragement I've had from this forum.

So even though this build tread will rumble on for a bit longer, I want to thank all of you who have taken the time to reply to date.

Whilst I appreciate even a single reply, many of you have gone above and beyond the call of duty.

Next Steps:
- I have a short work meeting "in town" tomorrow.
- I am also feeling a bit grim at the moment, so will go and rest for a while now.
- But if I can sneak a drive in at some point in the day I will.

So until then, take care, Paul.
