OK, more or less there and taxed from today. I still need to fix a couple of wiring funnies as well as tunnel trim, floor covering, boot trim, side screens, tonneau, boot covering / tonneau and side mirror brackets.

The MegaSquirt map / settings probably need adjusting as I think I’m using a lot of fuel but a few trips will tell.

Hi Richard,
Glad to see it's on the road. It looks stunning.

My experience with MS is it's easy to getting it running well - but getting decent economy too takes the time.

Looks lovely mate.

Bring it out for a road run next Saturday, or 18th August or 31st August to Santapod.

A few of us will be there testing out cars on these days. You dont have to race. Just use the day out to get some miles on the car and say hello :)

Many thanks for comments but it seems I have a few issues - see 'another cooling question' post. Once I've sorted those out I hope to really get it on the road.
