Poor shuv

Yeah, but I can rebuild it, we have the technology it will be stonger, faster etc.






But I just can't be arsed when it's this cold out doors.
At least I will have some of a manta engine going spare to put in it one day.

Well it was nice and sunny today and not so cold so I acctually did some work on the Chevette for the first time since June or so. I've chopped both the inner wing tops off, and replaced the NS one with lovely fresh steel. The OS one is going to have to wait until after the Manta has it's new engine I think as the Cavalier arrives tomorrow morning.

The OS wing before:

The OS wing after:

And the NS wing with added new metal!

That just leaves patches in both sills, the OS inner wing, and a chassis rail box section kind of thing. The plan is to have it MOTed again by June, ready to move house without having to tow it. Should be fairly easy if I pull my finger out.

Good stuff. I know what you mean about work getting in the way. Both mine have inconveniently ground to a halt now I'm working full time

Damn this real life malarky.
