IT BLOODY PASSED!

[Happystamps]

I'm happy to say, that after six years of ups, downs and sideways, more scars than I can point out, numerous hospital visits and at least six electric shocks from welding in the rain, Ratty the Scamper Van, the Rainbow Killer, Bringer of Smoke is now a fully road-legal, working machine. Can't remember the last time I was this happy. Special thanks to many, many people, but specifically I've gotta name Ozziedog- without him I'd still have half a chassis and wouldn't know how to dunk (a pair of) chocolate digestives properly.

Three advisories- slight play in both rear wheel bearings, slight play in steering box. Couldn't adjust out the tiny flat on the steering peg. Last saw tarmac in 1992.

Good effort Must be exciting to be able to use it at last

Few celebratory beers tonight then? :lol:

Congratulations - the feeling of a hard earned MOT pass is one of the sweetest of all.

Your resto/repair/rebuild/graft has been well worth it.

Also, how do you dunk a pair of chocolate digestives? Face to face?

Amazing amount of work and effort, well done bud.

Although I think people need to be reminded of what you started with:

Thanks man- that was a silly day, with hindsight. Should have just got a job and bought one! Never mind- happy days.

Thanks! yeah, chocolate to chocolate- keeps the fingers clean, and keeps the chocolate present. Also you get to eat two biscuits. Genius.
