Blue Thunder returns !

Post by FASTY72 » 11th March 2015 - 10:16pm

Here is a couple of pics. I have been keeping things under wraps till it was back on the road. Its been 5 years since I took it off the road. A long story but it is now road legal. lots still to sort but it is great to be able to drive it again......

Last September. Ready for paint.... Thanks to Alan Tapscott for all the help.

After several months of hard work in my spare time. Thanks to John my neighbour for his help putting it back together.
Looks similar to how it was before all the work but now it is solid and with lots of my own personal touches. Still got the interior to do and lots of other bits. Thanks to everyone on this forum for thier expertise as well. I don't know how we did things like this before the internet. :)
Hi My name is Paul...................... Fasty back together again !!!!!!!!!!
