Bubble #3 and the first Electric Aston

The day started dry but overcast so I decided to get the Imp into the bubble.

First though I wanted to move the Alpine so the Imp could sit under cover as the weather looked 'iffy'. So after an hour on the fan heater the Alpine started (almost) first time and ran very well. Did some jobs...


... then continued around the block.

As I was doing so I was also heating the Imp. So more jobs while that was warming and out it came. Started after a few goes but ran well.


The bubble took about 20 minutes to inflate and then I took about 40 mins to construct the frame inside, but that did include cutting down two poles that really were too long and having to re-construct one end that I had done incorrectly.


So that complete I packed up. 

The weather was not good enough to risk the Imp in the afternoon, however it was good enough to get the Aston out and go and buy a new battery for the SAAB.


I also did some Secret Santa Shopping while I was at it.

Finally as the car was still looking very clean and the night was dry I went down to Felixstowe to my new favorite spot to take a pic of the Aston at night. Not so easy with a dark car. But pleasing never the less.
