Cheers Guys,
Never despondent because there's nothing that can't be made perfect…..more the eager anticipation of having the finishing line in sight!….I'm GAGGING to drive this car!
A fantastic day and the start up was very straightforward in the end…..first ever time seeing the engine run.
Nick was pleased with how things went and said the engine sounds spot on…..all being well I might have an MOT by the end of the week!
Exciting times!

That's great news, but the video clip won't run on my ipad. I will have to turn the PC on.
Kind regards.

Sorry chaps, the ipad doesn't support various formats to save battery life - I'll see if there's a work around. 
He loves what he does and it shows!
Thanks for all the comments, really are appreciated.
Cheers,
