Engine has arrived in Nottingham.
New water pump has been ordered.
Just waiting for the local Honda stealer to ring me back to order some belts and stuff.

She got took off the road at the end of 2008 when I got the company car and was commuting 150 miles a day!

Think I put her back on the road for a few days to do japshow in 2011 (ish).

That's it really. Other than that she's attached to a trickle charger and gets started....when I think about it! :lol:

Are you still doing that commute or will the Lude become a weekend car?

Parts are starting to arrive! :)

Going to get the engine in and hopefully have enough Wonga left to sort the body work, but we'll see :?
