ROCK ON ROME...

.
The team's weekend is over and Robbit's made it home in one piece. There's still a few bits and pieces to do on the car; most of them electrical. We have the inverter working with a 230V AC plug socket for our laptops and we have five available cigarette lighter sockets to charge i-pods, i-trips, phones, the Garmin GPS, the sound-to-light-converting plastic ball chandelier thingy on the back shelf and the impressive, but very small, blue neon strip that will be as useless as a chocolate fire guard during the daylight hours that we'll be driving... but hey, at least we'll know we have the power!

We've yet to drill and wire in the solar powered front skirt lighting... and the furry pink seat covers from BJ's Auto Spares (how appropriate) arrive on Tuesday. Oh, and we need to get the wheels balanced and the tracking sorted out; but there's time enough for that.

In the meantime, here's a brief overview of our pimping weekend when out third team member, Simsie, was sorely missed:

  1. Looks great fun guys - what a mota! Hey, and you got off lightly filming in that Auto shop. I got frog marched off the premises when I tried a similar stunt in Sainsbury's. Anyway, best of luck - I'll follow the blog, Ted
