Fontaine's first week

BUSINESS PLAN

Name: Fontaines Fresh Buns

Ha, your now turning her into your own personal cake delivery service. Brilliant!! That'll work both as a place to put deliveries (according to the aforementioned load guidelines) and also as a massive cooling rack...

its all stainless and aluminium (thats aloominum to our american friends) so its another bit of bling ;) hope you like it :)

"you were only supposed to blow the bloody SLIDING doors off"
 
It looks great thanks!! How is it attached - egg whites and flour mixture!?

Was there any horrors when the roof lining came out? Or when the grommets went in!?

Jon&Cara-Gramarye Fontaine
 
we didn't wash the roof because we hadn't put the sealant on :)
It was done later & in time the storm thunder & lightning,just been out with torch (in the storm)no leaks [8D] .....so far [8D]

No leaks ANYWHERE would be good. I'm so worried this seal in the gearbox will leak and we'll be back to the beginning again! Thank you for doing the roof, good timing as well if its stormy. Looking forward to seeing your roof creation tomorrow!

gearbox now bolted on, and we even managed it WITH the torque converter [^]:p:)[8D]

Oh yesssssss[^]
Soon be sorted - amazing how a simple job like fitting an exhaust spirals into something else completely:I

'Harvey the RV'
 
....Most expensive too ;):D

It really has been a massive job that has been undertaken by Tim and Chris - Our eyes will benefit from a much prettier Fontaine, with her one-off roof rack :p here new exhaust and her new, thingymajig...oh, her new engine!

It's been a tough few weeks and has really questioned our love and loyalty to Fontaine, but she is sat on New Road with her grin returning!

Theres not to many more jobs left to do now ;) and fewer bits left to buy :p:D - just getting the last bits now!

She is a peach :pwouldn't mind keeping her :pand she is breaking a smile,she did look very worried the other day when she had her engine but no gearbox :( she looked very nice in the sunshine today [8D]be nice to see her back on the deck :p

And it will be nice to use her as she should be. We still can't believe we have spent only one night in her so far! If the engines buggers this time i'm afraid you may just have us camped outside your house while we get our moneys worth out of Fontaine!

Just wondering....can we fit an A/C Unit on the roof rack :p

You should have in the post to you the Air Filter and the Rad - i sent the guy another offer and didn't hear so i just bought at the listed price (bit concerned i didn't hear from him though - so fingers and toes crossed). Winging its way to me is some 22mm grommets and i have in my possesion 1/2 metre of 3/8 bore fuel pipe (hope thats pretty much the same).

Cara is at work now but i'll get her to do it tomorrow - i don't have her camera on me - and i was working this morn/afters. A dip in the springs would be top of the list today :p

like a sieve, we found monkfish in there this morning ;):D
fitted the exhaust, sorted the wire to the temp sender,filled her up with oil,fitted the throtle cable,removed the automatic choke as it seems impossible to get it to work without the missing electronics. wound it over until it got oil pressure and then..........................bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmm :p[^]:D[8D];)

"you were only supposed to blow the bloody SLIDING doors off"
 
Oh WOW!! Thats amazing - wasn't expecting that :p:p Fingers crossed everything turns up for thursday (ish) time - we may even be tempted to arrive before 2pm [:0];) If we are invited again!
