The last time i was in the garage, it was to drive the stripped down car in there just after our day of fun chopping it up and driving it like loonies up and down our road. The next time i went in it was to make a big commitment - to rip the life and soul out of the sad little car. As I drained the water system, it felt like i was bleeding it to death. Anyway, i soon forgot about all that nonsence and had a thoroughly good time stripping out the final bits and exposing the engine. I had to make a couple of choices on the way; ones that i hope i wont live to regret, like not bothering to mark up any of the wiring loom (Im thinking that im going to start from scratch with the loom)
Removing the final bits of engine bay and firewall (do plastic reliants have firewalls??) were tougher than id thought, but nothing that a panel saw, tin cutters and jemmy bar couldnt handle.
So after an enjoyable 3 hours, I was left with an engine sitting in a chassis AND A MILE AND A HALF OF RUBBER PIPE. Where on earth did all that hose come from? and more to the point where am i going to put it all when i put the engine in a trike frame?
