Well, thats the whole of October gone and I've done nothing with the car. How time flies...

I am quite amazed at the number of people who have come onto my blog here. Nearly 3,000 at the moment. Thanks very much everybody.
I have not abandoned this blog or the car build, I've just not done anything on the car since my last post. In fact since I came back off holiday in September!

In the last couple of weeks I've picked up a 100cc scooter and I've been fiddling with that. I got it dead cheap off ebay and it just needs some TLC and I'll be on the road with it. 100mpg is the attraction!! and the fact it's a 2 stroke. I love the ring ting ting....

Today I received a second hand water rail for the zetec and I've now got that on making it dead easy to fit the top hose to the radiator. The bottom one is a bit more difficult and I may have to buy a silicon reducing bend to attached to the water pump outlet that's a lot bigger (45mm I think) than the rest of the hoses.

While I was on a roll I have nearly finished the alternator bracket I started ages ago. It just needs taking off and welding up, a trip to Halfords for a belt and I should have it up and running soon.

Twice in the last month I've had to start the car to get it out of the garage and up the drive and I can report it starts first time and drive's quite good, even for the small push up the drive! The only thing that I'm not happy about is a small brake fluid leak from the reservoir connection. It only leaks after I've used the brakes but as its on the non-pressurised side of the system so I'm a bit miffed at that one.
