Well after the engine start success I wandered around in the garage in a bit of a dream for a few hrs & didn't manage to achieve much.

Got most of the rear lights working Brakes, indicators, side lights, number plate fog light... & completely forgot to check the reversing light... on the list for tomorrow.

Update: Reversing light... tick!

Took all the engine mount bolts out & put in the missing washers...

Finished off the scuttle trim which has been half hanging off for a while...

Started on the front wings & using my new stepped drill made short work of enlarging the hole in the wing... should have bought one of these earlier, what a great tool! thanks Jerry! threaded a wire through the wing stay with a view to using this to pull the main one through, looks straight forward enough anyway.

Special treat & put on all the wheels! only temporarily but I needed a boost!  it did make me realise how low the car is going to go... you get used to it being at the working height... haven't lowered it yet as I still have to bleed the brakes againspray a bit more dinatrol & repaint the inside of the wings with the black gooey underseal.

So tomorrow I may glue (sorry I mean... 'bond') the wings on! doesn't look as bad as I feared now that I have all the bits together.

Had a quick look at the IVA check list & I seem to have done 75% of it already so that's good! but I do seem to have run out of IVA strip to do the fuse box... my only e-mail of the day to Derek (& also checking which way round the indicators go...I think its fat end to the front as this is the way the pre drilled holes would seem to dictate)
