After a rummage under the desk and an order placed with MBs I reckon I'm up to 112, and that doesn't include exhaust and carb...

Some further rummaging in the shed gets me to 126

Will you be going for the panel work next Ross?
Any idea how many bits in total to have a running rolling Lammy?

Well, you never know, I might get this one running sometime...

Restos catalogue would be a good place to make a start, I have one in the office, I'll do some quick sums Friday when I'm back in there ;-)

And I really do not want to think about the cost :shock:

Though might consider a little borrowing is somebody came up with a late orbar rolling chassis, but harder to hide from the missus

Yes but they don't come with a SIL engine either.

2 x dowels @ 95p
14 x 6mm studs / nuts / washers @ 80p
2 x 8mm exhaust studs / nuts / washers @£1.20
= £15.50

Rolling total = A lot.
