A date for SVA and a bad back (again)

Oh dear oh dear oh dear!

I don't know what is more worrying - the old geezer having a bad back again or the fact that we now have a date for the SVA test - 26th March - eeek!

Anyway due to recurring injury the best Tim was able to do was put some connectors on the headlamps, while Chrissy got on and put the kick plates on using velcro (the kick plates cover the lip of the body where you get into the cockpit) The rounded end needs to go towards the back.

We have also drilled out some rivet holes for the little interior panels that fit in front of the kick plates as you can see here - this is ok on the near side but on the off side the body and scuttle return flanges stick too far in to the body to allow the panel to fit ... can't just trim these flanges as they are used at the relevant places to provide the mounting which allows the two to positively fit together....we'll have to put our thinking caps on ....as well as get our skates on to get the car finished in time for the test.
