Good! So, whens it going to be finished?? When I first got the P4 back from the paintshop, I thought I'd have it done in a weekend and I can't believe how much work I have put into it!

Surprising how long it takes isn't it? I'm just trying to get my mate gee'd up to come & finish the welding then I can really crack on with it

Next one will be a V8 SD1 or V8 Rover P6 or an Austin Princess/Ambassador. Maybe another Marina, but a non runner.

Now that is a very smart ginger beard wouldn't you say? The fleet. Bet they would look good black and white. The P4 isn't totally finished, but almost. I couldn't help but take it for a drive. Trouble is, the bloomin radiator is now leaking. I forgot how heavy the steering is and how much power it has. Brakes are spot on too. Oh yeah, proof it was on the road today.
