hi Russ

I'm still farting about on those rear chassis legs.
the rear main chassis sections are both in,
and i'm doing the over-axle chassis and inner wheelarch repairs.

(I'd be un-employable as a mechanic/welder.
Every hour spent in the gagrage consists of
ten minutes actually working,
and fifty minutes having a cup of tea,
a chocolate biscuit, a sly wee cigarette,
and lots of self-congratulating about my own
marvelous craftsmanship...
... and dreaming of an open road before me ;-)

stuck in the garage, waiting for the summer sun?

If anybody's heading over here, pick up "Practical Classics" mag,
and you'll see where the car shows/ autojumbles are most weekends.
