Superb work Mike, fair play to you mate!

It genuinely is going to be funny after all that if you end up so knackered that you sleep in tomorrow and arent at bedford by 8am for the briefing, lol.
 
Excellent work mike!! I know how it feels to do an all nighter like this, I had a similar experience spannering on a friends Fiesta R2 that shat itself back in November we made scrutineering by 6 minutes :)
 
9.37am.

f**k this. It's time for Mcdonnalds.

182 rear beam is on but one shock bolt has snapped torquing it up so I need to pop out anyway!

Another hour or so and she will be ready for geo! :)

Lol! Great effort mate! I now see why you couldn't wait until Saturday for that rear beam.

Hope it behaves at Bedford.
 
fantastic i think if i had your work rate id of done a full build on my car in a couple of weeks lol
 
Good read, I'm exciting about fitting new shocks and wind deflectors ha. You must be feeling good now it's almost done.
 
So the car is ready. But you will never believe what's gone wrong now!

The Snap-On trolley jack has chose this exact moment to die and I can't get it off the axle stands!

Seriously f**k my life!

Awesome work mate! Engine crane would be my next option to get it off the stands lol! or man up and lift haha!
 
I can honestly say you and your mate have worked extremely quickly, and I bet that if Chip and other people was closer to you, you would of definitely had more hands on the job.

I'm a mechanical r****d so i've enjoyed reading through all this.

Top work mate and hope all goes well at Bedford.
