At this point the motor was actually running, though without the benefit of film footage, you'll have to imagine the rumpitty, rumpitty noise for now. Time for a celebratory donut or 6. Loony & I were the last to leave the workshop after we'd said goodbye to everyone & they'd headed off into the darkness again. A huge leap forward in the birth of this beast. It's very nearly a proper car now. I'm a happy bunny.
And this is what she sounded like after the Wylie's boys sorted out the teething problems.you can just see the smile on Andy face http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KppFblRj_mI

Link worked OK for me ................ The sound of a V8 is always good, but hearing your own for the first time, doesn't get much better (cept its first drive out maybe.....)

The Surrey Street Rodders organise the big annual WheelsDay car show at Rushoor Arena, Hampshire in late April. There was crazy talk between us & them last night of trailering the Pop there & cruising the show site in it.
