The DVLA inspection sounds scary :shock: Is it a SVA test ?????

Dont forget you can insure it on the NSRA insurance with agreed value.
MisteR Tee does the valuations.

As you are a NSRA member the ad is on the back cover of the NSRA Street Gasser mag ;)

Good luck with the DVLA :thumbright:

Well I hope not, as I will have to investigate an alternative route. I guess it all depends on the decision of the assessor from the DVLA [-o<

OK, I will contact him and see what his decision is or if my car meets his criteria :thumbright:

Sorry no pictures again, will post some in a week or so or after I come back from China.

Latest news is:-

Made fibreglass light holders which go in the lower valance, also made some fibreglass over riders for the rear bumper, really pleased with the results.

As I have gone for a rear wing, I have made a small hinged flap for the trunk, so I can fill up without opening the trunk or having to remove the wing. As I will be stopping for fuel a lot, seemed a good idea ;)

Picking car up on Sat 17th May - Thanks Steve, free razors for life & a good few beers on route :thumbright:

DVLA are coming to my house to inspect the Cuda on Monday 19th May. I guess that's going to be a day I wont forget :P Then again, he probably wont forget the car either :lol:

Once DVLA have confirmed thier decision, I should be able to arrange insurance [-o< Spoke to the insurance guy from the NSRA at the Ace the other night, who was very nice & receptive, so hoping all will be OK

Booked in for MOT on the 24th May.

Got a weeks holiday, before Brooklands, so should get a lot of the other jobs done, so good chance of making Brooklands :Mopar:

Few Photos from today, no particular order. Didn't fire car today as still couldn't find coil, so have ordered another today.

Also need to get water temp/probe for Big Stuff3, hopefully can get one here early next week.

Car needs a good damn clean & electrics need tidying up...

Any way here they are :thumbright:
