After the last weekend I was able to continue on the westie, I was missing 2 small parts again.
I called Westfield and they promised to send them to me asap. Now almost 2 weeks later, still no parts.... and another weekend coming that I will not be able to work on the westie.
My intention was to finish the Kit at the end of this month, but because of all the delays with missing parts this will not be possible anymore. My new deadline is end of March.

I was finally able to retrieve the missing parts on thursday evening so I could continue the work on my steering colum.

On friday I've finished the steering column. Fitted the drive shaft. Put the westie on its wheels for the first time to tork all the bolds in the suspension. And mounted the rear fenders.
Also did some small jobs like mounting the washer bottle, added connectors for the headlights to the loom, fixed some wires of the rear loom to the chassis, mounted the feul tank, changed the oil in the diff and gearbox, mounted the gear lever,...

I was fun to be able to work a full day on friday and some hours the rest of the weekend. Finally some progress again.

I've been able to contact Westfield. And they thold me that they have a big problem with there telephone center. This weekend I should receive all the missing parts...

All is quiet now

A few days now, almost weeks I'm running on a low gear. Mainly because I'm missing parts and it takes a lot of time and patience to get a response from Westfield or Oracle.
There are some parts that I'm missing from before christmas. To bad for all the spare time I had between the holidays but they did not get the missing parts to me before the holidays and I'm still waiting....
To bad because I wanted to get my westie finished before march. To achieve that I'm working each friday for a full day together with my dad since delivery of the kit. But I already had to call him the last 2 fridays that we could not work on friday because there's not that much todo without parts and this friday will be no different.
