Well after a chat with John Leitch (www.pheonixcar.co.uk) it's official - all systems go go go..
Eleanor safely down to Pheonix Honda (Grangemouth) Tuesday night thoughat first she was too wide to fit their trailer.. car needs spacers for the rear callipers but we managed by swapping to a small front wheel and a bit of muscle.
- work commencing in earnest Monday.. once done car will also be used for promo work for the workshop/group so will also get tarted up inside and a new Auotecnique livery outside (www.autotecnique.com) but that's all down the line. Initially its about getting the set-up to work but lots to do.. However I'm hoping we'll have some sort of small get together for the unveiling (or at least turning the engine over).. down in Grangemouth.
Very nice premises (prev VAG) and a nice big workshop. Great guys down there who are happy to take jst about anything on and see this project as an opportunity to show what they can do. Going to sort out electrics as well as the conversion - just what Eleanor needs as she's a bloody shambles!!
Engine hopefully over in next 10 days or so. Spoke to Barry last night to finalise and will get figures and bank details tonight as well as give Barry Pheonix's address for delivery..
