Could not be happier with the way the paint has come together. Colour is brilliant !
Yes Jason, look forward to seeing your Hornet mate. Hope you can get it along for the big show. A big row of Hornets on the grass will be awesome !!

another month on and now oh so very close to having the Hornet approved and registered for road use .............. Maybe a week away from the first pics of it being driven !
Paint and bodywork done, although it will go back for some minor touch-ups at some stage. Mechanic has been right through it and given a service, oil change, plugs etc.............. Hornet running sweet as a nut ! I have driven it about 50 yards from the tow truck to the garage ......... very very exciting for me !!

Yes SS it certainly has been !

Been a crazy ride the last 12 months, nothing like I had hoped it would be. anyhow, turn the clock forward that 12 months and here we are ... Hornet seeing daylight again and close to drive time !

Drove the Hornet home today, first time on Australian roads. Very happy to finally get to this point.
Was a wet day so took it very easy. Hope for some dry conditions on the weekend and get it out on the highway .............

First cruise, out for a nice morning with the local club.

I joined the 55 Hudson and 2 sharp looking Rebels. Being the weather was a bit iffy on the day, most members came in their daily drivers for our breakfast get-to-gether.
