Here she is home......

Unloaded it from truck and took for a spin down the lane. Very happy with it. Just the brakes wouldn't be the best........ But nothing a couple of hours getting hands dirty wont sort....

The wife said she will set up a thread in the project forum with more pics.

It will be much easier to do MTM in one mini so i can sleep and not worry about having to drive that far. Dont mind driving to Mayo in one day but that length is just a bit too far for me - dont mind being a passenger though. Also would have to try get one of my friends to be with me for it so I am not all alone.
Gotta Love GLEE!!!!!
