No the bloody project hasn't been shelved!  cussing:

In fact I took some shiny restored mini bits to show Kafenes in horse pickle yesterday!  redface:

I'm waiting for some shims from the UK that I need to complete the gearbox rebuild, then the engine, etc...

Total rebuild costs now come to €13,000  redface:
