Yeah, it does, but (apparently like everyone else's) the handbrake isn't great - it requires full ratchet to lock up, which makes me nervous on hills.
I used to spool, but now I drive a Barina :/

Absolutely zero progress of late, and I do apologize. I'm quite broke right now, as about $3K in bills came in over the last two months.

Shortly before everything was relocated, I managed to clean up the boot floor where it wont be cut out, and primered over it. If the weather is good next weekend, and I can spare some money, I'll buy more primer, and finish the floor off, and cut the boot out.

Ok, boot floor came out today. There's still a little bit of tidying up to do and a couple of brackets to remove, but that will have to wait until I can buy another wire wheel and some grinding discs.

Yeah, rattle-can primer. Will go over it with a nice bright silver.

The cage was done back in '04, and sadly, is no longer CAMS-compliant due to a lack of diagonals.

Haven't really done much to the car of late. Been very pre-occupied with other things, such as renovations, and pro-creation. I took a bit more out of the boot floor some time ago, and have cleaned up a few other things, but that's pretty much it.

I'm hoping in a few months, I'll be able to spend a bt more time and money on it to keep the ball rolling.

C'mon renovations can wait and procreation takes like 5 minutes lol. I for one am looking forward to seeing some progress :P

The result of the procreation and renovations is costing me a fortune :lol:
