Great to see another Firenza progressing well. Look forward to seeing it painted.

Hey Phil, Im good thanks. Ive started working offshore full time so I get the full 21 days off now so plenty of manta time! Its nearly there, Ill put up some pics in the general section when I get home.
Good to hear youve got another shed, I tried for ages to find one up there with no luck.
Catch up soon, Ill give you a shout when Im back.

Hi Scott,
That's good about the job.....21 days leave, lot of welding, painting and spannering can be done in that time, no wonder the Manta is coming on leaps and bounds.
Not got a definite on shed as yet, would you be interested in sharing one if a large enough one comes along? Got a possibility, just waiting to hear.

Hi Guys,
Well, not been updating much recently as wasn't a lot happening but I'm pleased to say that my Firenza is now back home from the Painters, collected it last Saturday morning and into a new shed that I finally managed to organise.
Hopefully some more progress now, it's been a long time since I commenced on this project....erm, just over 5 years since I took her off the road to start work on her.
Anyway, after moving all my parts/spares to new shed, I finally went to make a start on re-building everything back into the car and I stood there for ages just wondering where the heck was I going to start!!!!
Will be keeping you updated again as I progress, here's hoping she finally returns to the road for this summer.
Couple of pics attached that I took on the way home last Saturday, was a lovely day.
