It is increasingly unlikely that the SSB will be ready for York but I will give it my best shot. If not I will come anyway and bring the cabbie.
Awesome progress Kerry, looking forward to my passenger ride in it!!
Been a while since I set foot in this place, loads to catch up on.

My next door neighbour has helped me out with the bracket and welded it up. Probably not the most exciting update ever but still good progress. And thanks to Pete for offering to do the welding.

I guess I can't really finalise the orientation of the CHRA until the block and head are re-united -but I am fairly sure it is not too far off the mark. The project feels like I have a slow but...
