We'll have to meet up and compare cuts and grazes. I'm back to work tomorrow - I work a pattern of six on four off - but I'll pm you my details. We'll have to get PsychoPops on board too so we can have the first unofficial East Angular* Sammio gathering (*copyright Jade Goody's estate).
As for my build it's going slowly but satisfyingly surely. I've spent the last two days fabricating a fan shroud and mounting brackets for my Honda 'toast slice' radiator. It should've been a straightforward job but I didn't have enough sheet metal to make it in one piece so I had to make it in bits and weld them all together. Should get that finished today so I'll post some pic's once it's done.
Glad to hear that the 175/70/14's fit without fouling, I ordered a set of innertubes yesterday to fit that size and will be ordering the tyres as soon as they arrive.
Bye for now and I'm really looking forward to seeing your Spyder in the flesh.
