Nice, I'll be there about 9:30, i think Helen's coming over too...

We'll finally finish the gel tomorrow, may get the engine on, have a look at the trunks and do some final fitting of the console goodies too

Oh and there's polishing stainless, cleaning the fuel tanks and and and....

Who's idea was this project

I guess that's a sign of advancing years gents.

I recall the days when Sunday mornings were for grabbing something entirely different!

Having just literally flown in and out .....

It looks fantastic .

I feel guilty for not contributing as Biff and whisper especially are putting everything into this...

They're being kept in check well under control by Helen :-)

Engine looks ace, console looks like new, when combined with new upholstery and polished up it'll be a boat to cherish. Hmm...must go check bank balance...could I run to buying it? It won't be long now before someone does........
