Luego Velocity

Are the front wheels on the wrong way round, or is it just me?

Anyway. Stop posting. Get it finished!

I wondered who would be first to notice that.
They are only there so that i can move it around. I wasn't really paying attention when i put them on. They are only held in with 2 wheel nuts so its not hard to change them. It will be sorted before SVA though so its not a worry.

Well, I haven't been on this forum in YEARS but I thought I should re-visit.

I have graduated University now so I have loads of time to put into this. Attached is a picture I took the other week when I rolled it out of the garage, not much has changed since the last photos. Interior panels are basically all in and I am focusing on the rear end right now. Got the brakes to finish plumbing in and a tank to sort out. Fortunately I know a Aluminium Fabricator so for a small fee he is making me one to my dimensions. Should give me around 7 Gallons and a 300 mile range (dependant on my right foot). Feels good to actually make progress.

Welcome back....keep us posted on progress. What did you graduate in?

I'm now a Bachelor of Science. Studied Multimedia Technology and Design, got a LOT of skills but it's irrelevant in today's job market, nothing around.

and mastering in the same subjects will not increase your chances in any way?

A masters doesn't really help. Ideally I would like to end up in TV and to be honest they don't really even pay attention to the final degree grade, it's all about building a portfolio. I have a decent amount of experience under my belt but there are so few jobs going and such a huge number of people applying. Current plan is to get a decent job local to me, build up a lot of savings and then move to London with my contacts inside the BBC and work my way up there, I just can't afford to live in London right now.

Hey Tom!
Good to see you back, and good to see process on the Luego!
Are you setting a goal for completion of it? Spring time?

My goal currently is to get it moving and drivable over the winter. I could get it IVA'd and registered for Stoneleigh but I don't think I will end up working on it enough. Hopefully though I'll find a job soon and progress can pick up, right now I can't afford to go out and buy all the bits I need to finish up parts of it.
