Winter and a frozen wet garage

25 January 2010
The winter that usually gives amiss in the United Kingdom hit with vengeance this January and made road conditions treacherous and impassable for days. I also discovered that my garage leaked and this would possibly mean another garage move in the near future.

My buggies body work issues where still very much in my mind as my engine still had not been fitted. I had had a lot of discussions about re fibreglassing the rear body work to raise it up enough for the engine turbo components. I also was considering my other options and had found a 3" Empi body lift kit which would raise all of the body work up 3" and this also seemed an option as I was needing more headroom for a hood. It was going to be some time before temperatures in the garage made working possible and I decided to see if I could locate the Empi body lift kit. It seems as if it is only available in America so importing it would take four weeks. With this said a decision would have to be made soon.
