As a few of you know, I've had my engine almost finished and in the garage for a few weeks now. I had to work 5 weeks without a break up to the Fast Show weekend at the Pod. Instead of getting my car finished I went to the Pod for the weekend to recharge my batteries and race the little yellow turbo for some track fun
I had planned to get the engine back in today and take my long suffering wife out on sunday as we havent seen much of each other due to our workloads. But work got in the way again and I had to go to London early this morning. Everyone in then house knew just how pissed off I was at having my garage weekend ruined. So I resigned myself to the fact that the car would just sit on the drive until I could get back to it. And today my spirits dropped to an all time low for the car. Before I got home I decided to close the garage door on the MG and look at it again when I could be arsed to...
I arrived home tonight to find my Son Jason and his mate Sam looking into the engine bay of the MG for some reason??
I got out of the truck and had a stretch as I was aching from head to toe from the 6am to 5pm shift plus the 5 hours driving today. As I walked down the drive I thought he had fixed the burnt wiring he started the other night. But as I got closer he shouted SURPRISE !!
And then I saw that he had fitted the engine and tranny back into the MG
Now all I have to do is bolt all the small stuff on during the evenings of next week to get her ready to test fire next weekend
He's a good Son for sure
Just thought I'd share my bit of joy with you guys !!
