Went for an MOT today.

The drive there was thrilling. The 1.6 and power steering is superb!

The wait in the waiting room was rather nerve racking.

Failed on a weeping brake line and slightly over on emissions.


In other news..... the gearbox is like a cement mixer!

Got a spare box here ready for the impending doom.


So just need to tweak the carb and get a brake line made up so it will deffo be ready for suzuki day!! :guns:

The arches are made from a buried cable marker tape. Very tough but nice and flexy. The only problem is they dont take paint well and it is already starting to peel so I need to find something to colour them with.

I'm over the moon with the truck. Its been a year of hot, cold, wet, snowy, dirty work but I kind of see it as an example of what can be done with a parking space and a 8'x4' shed.

Looking forward to it actually being legal and taking it for a good cruise. Its all insured now so just need to sort that brake line and away I go!
