Given the amount of dissection this vehicle has undergone I am pretty happy with the way the body has gone back together. There is quite a bit of work to go to get it all aligned and tightened up. The race is on to get it Corowa in a few weeks.

The week before the 'Corowa Swim In' was very hectic to get finished on time.
Canvas dyed, (several coats), doors finished and fitted, wiring finished off and numerous other little jobs saw me getting up at 5.00am most days and working till sundown. I planned on getting a few miles on the road to test drive but got nothing more than a few laps around the block so decided to trailer it up to be safe. It rides surprisingly smoothly and quiet and with the 2 1/2" exhaust sounds very nice. Still a few little things to sort but overall I am very happy with how it has turned out. I had to make sure John Mackay took me for a drive. I think he enjoyed it. Not sure what its cruising speed will be yet but on the Back To The Track trip from Alice Springs to Darwin later this year I hope to be travelling in more comfort than most.

Spectacular!!! You had to do (and did) many of the sheet metal troubles that scare the pants off most of us. Well done.
