Oh dear. It looks like someone's been loose with the sneaky SECRET pics.

Tut. Tut. lol


Its home. yay. It was f'in cold driving up the street last night with no windscreen. lol

Darryl's not happy with a couple of areas were its reacted due to using silicone based cleaning products in the past. He says there's no way of telling until you start painting it. So he's give it us back to build back up and he's going to paint those areas again.

It was parked outside his unit in the day yesterday and he said there was loads of people came over to look at it. He says its sooooooo bright in the daylight.

Darryl openly admits he doesn't like the car but even he says this is going to be the best Bigcab's ever looked.

We've alway had chrome badges saying RIEGER XXL Cabriolet on the boot lid and F40 on the doors.

I was thinking having RIEGER F40 Cabriolet on the boot and getting some of these made in stickers for the side, either on the side of the spoiler or at bottom of doors.

I recon they'd look cool. What do y'all recon?

I've put all the badges back on the boot in the layout of Riger F40 Cabriolet and I've had the XXL stickers made. They look wicked, but I'm not sure where to put em now. lol.

I've also put the Ford badge on the boot and the Karmann badges on the side near the air intakes.

While the windscreen is out I've had a Rieger sunstrip made and the same style stickers made for the side skirts aswell as a numberplate. Hopefully the window rubber will be here today and I can get that in.

The new roof is still sat on the floor in the garage, that wants putting on and the electric pump needs lookin. Stopped workin a couple years ago, though I best sort it while its off. lol.

The rear lights still need attention, they're not 100% and for some reason the indicators have stopped workin ???

The new filler cap needs plumbing into the tank then the boot can be refitted.

The interior incl rear seats, door rubbers and door cards needs putting back in but cant do that till roof on.

Front bumper has always had a bit of a wobble so that needs packing and fixing. then the headlights can be finished.

Engine has STILL got a mistery water leak but it is running like a dream, it sounds awsome driving up the street (the sound of the engine is a lot louder without a screen. lol)

Then a good fuckin clean.

The plan is to have it taxed 1st March (next Monday) to give it a propper run out.

Although we'd like to keep it secret till Fast show, expect to see it in a town near you soon. lol

Todays mood: Excited
As soon as the tax is on we can send the log bokk off for the colour change. Icon_wink
