Went in to woodsport today to see how they are getting along with my conversion, and everytime I go in there the Crews attention to detail astounds me.

The engine is in but there is still abit left to do, Paul will a do a propoer build thread when he time as he has took loads of pictures but here is a sneak peak.

popped into to see Mr Woods today and dropped some hob nobs off you all know his conversions are all powered by hob nobs. But got a good surprise when I went in barring some shake down testing and an MOT the car is finished. Nice to hear a working engine in the car for the first time in a year.

Here is a little video of everything running tickityboo

just a quick update for you guys on here.

I picked the car up today and I have to admit I am over the moon with Woodsports work.

Loads of torque (cant wait till I have done a few hundred miles so I can have a propoer go), and especially love the sound when you press the load pedal. Truly awesome I cant praise Paul and Anths work highly enough.

Have to admit I thought there was something not quite right when I first picked the car up as it didnt seem quite as quick as I had hoped and very little travel on the loud pedal. But, I discovered that the car mat was trapped behind the pedal.
