Well, it took a bit longer thay first anticipated, 437 days to be precise, but I finally got there. My first drive made all those hours working on the car worth while.

I had a few minor adjustments to sort out, but first drive went very well. The engine has an incredible amount of torque, with traction control been disabled (for the time been) wheel spin was an issue, never the less it was great fun and I look forward to those long drives through the Adelaide hills. 

All going well we will be going for our official test drive in three weeks.

It's now time to start the body work.
