Got the bottom part of the carb from ShellSpeed - THANK YOU SO MUCH *happy*

and the adjustable steady turned up today, along with the front shock mount bolts (I lost the originals :/)

So hopefully todays plan will be get carb and plenum on and get it on its wheels and then will feel positive again

I cheered up last night. Sorted a load of little jobs that have been pissing me off and got the car on it's back wheels. Was bouncing round the house like a child. *smiley*

I have been through the same building the brown streak. In the end I got a white board and wrote down everything I had to do. I then took great pleasure crossing them out. Finally the list was all ticked off and the car was done. Well, they are never finished are they, but ready for the first event anyway.
