WOW That was Fun

The Sutol rolled out today under it's own power.

YEEEEEEEEEE HA

I think I'v got the name wrong. It's anything but subtle.

I'v seen posts like this before.... now I know how it feels.




Woooo Hooooo

Entirely on private roads, of course...

...you know, the ones that look just like the one outside your garden...

Well done, mate!

David

Looks fantastic Paul!

Can't wait to get to that stage...

What bodywork are you going to use? Create your own?

Chris.

You have so many nice bits on that car: Lotus engine, SS chassis, titanium pedals, pretty blonde passenger...

Way to go!

OK, I'v calmed down a bit now

David. OK, so the first 25m is on the road.

Ned. The engine's super. Just got to remember to carry a bag to put the bits in that drop off.

Chris. It's got to be done. Now where's that english wheel.

Pete. My sons girlfriend. That's the first and last time I'll be able to say, "Did you enjoy that."

p.s. Do you think my fuel tank will pass SVA ?

Nice one Paul. Looks fantastic. Can't wait to see it in action myself.

I'm amazed you found a window in the weather, been a crappy day for out door stuff...





Have you done six impossible things before breakfast?

Nice one Paulo. I almost know how it feels. Got my car started this week . It started immediately (the exhaust sounds great). I struggled to put it in gear though because the thrust bearing wasn't located quite right. I think I've sorted it now but it's all jacked up at the moment as I'm working underneath so I can't try it.
I've been on tour with the band the last couple of weeks and I'm off again tomorrow for four days when all I want to do is get my car finished . GRRRRRRRR!!!
Anyway well done. Any chance you'll be on the road this year?
Take care. Hope to catch up with you some time.
Cheers
Jon
