Have you got your Nemesis yet?

What stage you at?

I'm guessing that if it has arrived, you'll have nearly finished it by now. I imagine you as having lots of free time

Will your car be at a show before the Python? (Not a dig Vince - sarcasm)

Would like to see the changes you are making. (The show comment being which new model will be seen first?)

My car is not moving along at all..... I don't have a chasis as I agreed with Vince that I would not take delivery until my Ultima is sold.

I do have an engine in a 750il BMW which is a 5.0L V12.

This thing will probably take me ages to do and I estimate at least 3times as long as my Ultima took me (8mths).
I also still have my house to finish.

However I am continuing with the investigation work and have been collecting odd bits to help me (like the brakes etc....

Thanks for asking, hows you 5exi comming?

Glad you clarified the bit about not having your chassis.

5Ei is coming along slowly. Ain't like the airfix kits as a kid - they used to fit together. I've got to make bits fit on the Marlin. eg widen the hole for the fuel sender (so it will actually go in) and slot the mounting holes for the steering rack.

I also modified the dash (but that was my own fault for trying to fit different clocks)

You must want a fortune for the Ultima, I mean - it's worth £10k of anyone's money.

Funny actually, I tried getting someone I work with to buy it. Didn't work though.

You'll have to email some pics when you get to work on the Nemesis.

I was intending on setting up a site.... fortunatelly I'm crap at web design so there is no way it will look professional!

I've already done a few designs of what my car "may" look like and started building a web page... but my work is sort of taking over a bit (must have a word with my boss about that actually!) so it'll be a while before anything surfaces.

I must say I really can't wait to get my teeth into another project.... I really looking forward to it.
