Is the end in sight?
Is anyone still awake?
.... and after months of no updates they are now flooding in!!
I got some pics today of the car getting ready to head off to the paint shop.
Plus, after all the debate earlier about maybe getting some slightly wilder profiled cams to get a bit more power but also a more race-car like lumpy idle I heard that the reprofiled cams had been returned to the workshop and would be fitted after the car passes the IVA test.
Apparently there was a lot of discussion behind the scenes about which profile to go for but the consensus was...
And..... I got a date early in October for the IVA test itself!!
Whoop whoop. It's been quite an exciting day

Oh wow, that’s amazing. I was going to say shame you’ve missed the summer, but then the less said about 2020 the better perhaps

A white car getting a white base coat isn't really going to draw much of a crowd but anyhow, I took a run down south yesterday to see how things were going and the guy doing the painting has promised me a daily bunch of pics. I guess it will be more exciting when there's a flash of red and green to be seen
I've also ordered a pair of custom lower light covers which would have been used in period to protect the lower driving lights. The upper quad pod comes with its own cover but sods law would likely mean a stone through one of the lower ones on the first drive.

Re: New(ish) car .. not really Lotus Content and a long wait..
A frustrating couple of weeks. All the white bits got painted perfectly but there was a bit of a false start with the Alitalia stripes not being marked out correctly for the period of the car so having to be redone. The ListerBell folk went over there and helped do the masking so everything is back on target for an awesome final effect.... but ... it has meant pushing my IVA test back till Friday 13th November. In the grand scheme of things I guess I can cope with that. I'm heading down over the weekend to hopefully see the finished paint job.
