Do not get too despondent
Hi Guys,
We will all have our own stories in regard to our build, mine is a little different to most:-
November 2003 ordered 5EXi at MPH03 motor show at Earls Court.
24th December 2003 had heart attack. Wife threatens to cancel order as it will be unlikely that I will ever complete the car.
February 2004 Terry phones and says part 1 is ready, small problem, Iam still not allowed to drive. A good friend of mine collects part 1 for me.
May 2004 Chassis looks good sitting in garage, untouched!
June 2004 Son buys donor.
At last I can start, by November the engines in and started. Collect body.
More heart troubles slow things down til late February.
Great strides made through til July and then a week ago further hospital in treatment. But.......................
My SVA is set for 18th October and what a motor!!!!!!!!!
So what nearly 2 years from the date ordered.
Do what you can, when you can and enlist the help of friends.
Best wishes to all builders
Trev
