the original plan was scooby shoot out 22nd may but I think it is slim chance now..

been delays in paint shop and still waiting on cams - piper have admitted they made a mistake and a guy that was assigned to do them has been off sick and they should have assigned them to someone else but assumed he would be back next week, next week, next week since december

decision to cut no corners to get it ready in time just steady progress without impacting mine and TFS racings business etc.. rather than long days..

Came back to find Stew and Ian (bod) working on it and they had fitted master cylinder, handbrake and cables, clutch cylinder and the boot and were in the process of fitting passenger door.
Bonnet, wings were slotted on and arches fitted mainly to stop the risk of damage with them sat around.
It then went on the ramp and stew and ian piped up the rear brakes in braided lines
