I hate when people compare Lemmy with God, i know he is great but he is not gonna be Lemmy, ever If your Dad hasnt got a beard, you've got two Mums there's no point it lookin' pretty if we can't drive it.

Good luck Merv.Take your time but keep it simple.Its a daunting prospect, but you'll get there eventually.Think you said your son plays with cars, so youve got someone to ounce ideas off!
what style will it be? Single,2 or 3 seater?

It's going to be a single seater, yes rod my son does get his hands dirty playing with cars he reckons I should put a turbo, a dump valve , a big loud pipe and yes nitrous and I said a big loud NO , kids what do you do with um  . But he is useful for an extra pare of hands. |

Ok, just got the V5C out and the engine number quotes 0B/85/59053, knowing you cant trust the log book with what was in the car I went and checked it against the engine and it's a match, so what engine do I have?
I can add to the info given to you by Old Newbie .  The engine was built by a 34 year old man with a comb over hairstyle and a liking for chips dipped in custard . His wife , whose measurements were 65 . 26 . 80 , worked as a bus shelter window cleaner but always complained that it was a pane . Anyway , I digress , the engine was finished at 3 minutes past 11.00 am on a rainy Thursday morning in February . Apparently it produced the best power output for that week so , if the engine is a stonkingly good one , you will think about the comb over blowing in the wind . . PS ; could you give me the vin number for my database https://sites.google.com/site/fifersrelianthintsandtips/engine-numbers

Joking aside, brought this up from the wood work shed today and put it into the trike shed ready to start work on, off to the pipe centre tomorrow to pick up some pipe, then we see what happens

Ooh, I love this part of a build! So many possibilities -& nothing's gone horribly wrong yet!
