So today I finally picked up my Freestyle after waiting patiently for a few weeks.
Its going to be an on-going project which in truth will probably be spread over a couple of years!
At this time my girlfriend is currently 27 weeks pregnant with our first, so we will see how old Ruby will be once the buggy is fully SVA'd and road legal!
I have basic knowledge from owning a mini pickup a few years ago. (about 6 years to be a bit more precise!)
All the work will be carried out in my garage which doesnt have electric or heating, so cant see much getting done through the winter months! I do however have a generator which enables me to use a grinder etc...!
Anyways, thats enough anout my background and on to the buggy!
So I set off at 8.30 this morning in my Transit van. The overall journey consisted of 2 cars, a smashed headlight, 1 car trailer, and a full tank of fuel! (dont ask!)
I got the buggy home about 2, and the first job was to get all the body panels out of the way as its only a single garage!
Next up was to jack the car up and sit him onto some axle stands so I could start witht he stripping!
Here he is sat up...
And then the work started!
Anyways, im affraid to say other than removing a few rusty old bolts I didnt get very far at all due to having to pick up the mrs from town!
Hopefully get back out there tomorrow and get cracking!
