No mate was in the work van lol it was at the cross roads near the new esso garage you was at the lights , does look good , how's the arb then ? How much are they I'm after getting a rear one and think I need a front one
found myself a rare bargain on ebay, new for only £150 posted, and new droplinks £32 , as had to go bigger this time rather than smaller, haven't driven it much but does feel better, got a viewing on the cosworth tomorrow so, be taking that to work tomorrow for one last blast hopefully....
I saw you this morning with the Cossi. SWEET. You been able to get lower with your whiteline? I think i'm as low as i can go without taking out the sump and the front bumper.

Yep thats him
He's done quite a bit of work for me in the past, I'v see your car a few times when I'v been passing
Today i managed to spend most of the day on the car, ( getting payed to work on my own car! ) managed to get all the repairs finished on the body, doing the bonnet and n/s front wing as extras in stead of brand new doors, and found a rust hole in the bonnet, started out as a small hi spot , ended up as a big hole 
so cut it out and treated it with a bit of etch primer and welded a plate in
masked up in oven for primer, must have had over 50 chips on the bonnet and wings.......
and was just enough time to prime it before i went home
Tomorrow shall see the wheel refurb'd and car prep't for paint hopefully.
