You're nervous !!!!  Spent over 2 1/2 years building to the best of my ability only to possibly have someone I've never met before pull it apart in 8 hours :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(.

Thanks all will let you know what happens

YellaBelly

Pah! 2 1/2 years, you lightweight! ;) :)

Started mine in the summer of 2005!!

Moleman

Good luck. hope it all goes well?  :D

peterw

O.K. We servived the IVA however, not quite there yet failed on one item only which is a lot better than it could have been. Went down on the steering wheel boss not being collapsable. Question Does anyone have a complete Sierra steering wheel i could beg, steal or borrow till next week? If I can get hold of one qick i can get it in for retest on Friday.

Thanks in advance

Pete

Wow they are fussy on that IVA stuff.. Still good that it only failed on the one thing. Does this mean a re-test takes a few weeks to book or do they just fit you in at short notice just to check the failed item?

peterw

Not too sure but Tony the examiner said they weren't too busy Friday so they could fit it in, would only take 10 mins to check and wouldn't even need to take it off the trailer.

YellaBelly

Well done that man! As good as there mate ;)

Hope I get as good a result (or better ;) )

2 weeks today :o :o :o

BTW, how long did he take, and was he a 'nice man'?

I have got a sierra steering but the horn push centre bit is no with it be some where in the garage you are welcome to have it

peterw

Should have taken most of the day but as the examiner had 1/2 day holiday booked we had to get it  all done before midday, which was fine for me and yes he was a nice man, none of this Hell Fire and Brimstone stuff!!!.

Stupott, If you can find the horn push I will even have your babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

stupott901

I will go and have look in the garage now

stupott901

No good cant find it any where ahhhhh

Not as good as it could have been, but well pleased

I have a complete height adjustable upper column with steering lock but no key.
normal sierra wheel fitted.
Yours to collect.
I will drill out the shearbolts in the lock in the morning

If you still need a steering wheel you can borrow mine for the retest

peterw

Thanks to everyone that has offered a me a wheel, I have found one on Fleabay for just over a tenner, waiting for it to arrive as we speak. Nothing is going to happen for a couple of weeks as I am away, keep hold of them cos if all else fails I may still be in the market.

Thanks again. ( hoping for fine weather at the end of August)

YellaBelly

Should be all over bar the shouting then Pete? :D

Pick the trailer up from Tony tommorrow night so I can get the car loaded and ready for an early start Tuesday!

Here's hoping I get as good a result as you mate. or even better ;) :)
