Well its gone for its MOT and welding n poo.

So when i get it bk, it should be 100% solid and road worthy. Pics of welding and wots been done when i get it bk, dunno how long it will be,its a friends garage and they doing it on the side for cheap,so might be a week or so.

They are MOT'ing it so are doing the work so it will pass, cant wait.

oh buggar....

its had welding done (been to look today) , ball joint fitted to mot spec and engine looked at because it was missing.

The cost is huge, so the car will have to be sold in next few months and fetch back at least what has gone into it...

Oh well, i'll get another in a yr or so
