Hi Loungers,

Sorry there hasn't been any info on the internet regarding the rebuilt of the Little Giant Killer,as most of you know i'me extremely busy with my shop and the orders of customers!
Since i bought the Fiat in 2005, lot's of things happened and as life goes on,we had more important things to take care of instead of working on our own "toys"..., such as the building of a new shop,workshop,and this year finally finishing or new appartment on top of the shop. I also have been busy with the startup of a new business next to the VW-shop we are running since 2000.More on that later as the time get's ready Smiley
I also managed to find some time to "built" and "tune" two lovely childrens thankx to my lovely  wife Sofie,those (3)baby's take quite some time!!! Grin Grin Grin

If al goes well the fiat will be at the next EBI without a doubt! So fingers crossed that i can find some time to finish the last bits and tweeks on the Fiat's rebuilt.
All the parts are there,so no more excuses now! Wink Wink Wink Just need some motivation and as i see there's still some interest in the car i won't disappoint you guys!!

All the best and enjoy the pics i'll start to post from now on.

 Hi Steve,

 Good to here you've got loads done since we last spoke...I hope you don't have to climb that ladder anymore to get home at night!!
 Time to start on the Fiat again!! "Just two weeks work and it'll be done" It's just finding those two weeks ain't it!!
 I just did two weeks on my Fiat and it's been such relief to get all that bodywork nonsense out of the way....back to the nuts'n'bolts...the fun bit!
 Can't wait to race you.....I'm gonna kick your arse!!....GET IT DONE!!!....nuff motivation??   Cheesy
