Hugely satisfying, Alan - especially as a dad taking/ working with his boy through his first steps to learning about this stuff. And much easier with two, I'd think. I was aware that our attitude to the process - steady steps, double checking and all - were as important as the outcome, and in the end it all worked fine. He wanted to start it up to test it was good but I said I would in case anything went horribly wrong - at least it'd be my fault, not his. All was good and we went for a celebratory drive. It has to be the coolest car anywhere, I was as proud as him! Happy fellas.

Loki - the steering's the same I'm afraid - I gave the u-joints another spray today in case, we'll see. It's fine on the road, but when moving slowly it's quite an effort. I couldn't find a fault-finding page for this in Haynes - what else could it be? And btw, having the crank lock was brilliant - it'd be another level of struggle without! Thank you.
