Time scales are meant to be broken mate........

Pics pics pics.....mow i've finished doing this for the parents......
 which was fun for the day, i've got the rest of the week to concetrate on the caddy, been prepping for primer today, hopefully it'll go on back end of this week.  Whilst waiting for the primer to go on i'll be cleaning and painting the engine, and prepping the engine bay for primer. Things are coming together now, gathered most of my parts, trim etc And seems as i'm outta work at the mo, the credit crunch is hitting us tradesmen, i'll be spending alot of time on the caddy. As the light was nice today I decided to take some outdoor pics.....enjoy.
