More pieces arrive!

Today has been another prosperous day for "The HillBillies". Thanks to Tony Shields at 2CV City ( www.2cvcity.co.uk ), we have all the bits to finish assembling the chassis. Wahey! Hopefully I'll get the chassis built up this weekend and get the shell back on soon.
At this point, I really should "big-up" Tony for the help he's given us (he sponsored me last year too!). Todays "haul" includes; kingpins, rear wheel cylinders (and rear hub nuts and covers), wiper blades, exhaust parts, couple of sets of HT leads and a new experimental "super" coil.
The van isn't only thing to benefit either, as Tony has donated a pair of nice new fleecy jackets for Rachael and I!
Without the help of 2CV City, the whole van project probably would've been a no go and we'd have either ended up doing it in a boring Euro-box or not doing it at all, meaning we wouldn't be able to raise loadsa money for our charities.
