				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The thing with building a locost, similar to writing a blog, is to keep doing something. Even when you don&#8217;t feel like it, or you don&#8217;t think you&#8217;re quite up to it, DO SOMETHING. So tonight I took my first photos of the car in progress. That&#8217;s a bit of a stretch, as &#8220;progress&#8221; is simply me taking photos of the bodywork we bought several weeks back.</p>
<figure id="attachment_9" style="width: 267px;" class="wp-caption alignright"><a title="Bodywork" rel="lightbox" href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_w-48POyKAOI/S_eB-3rG6iI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/z1SPS5kk6n8/s800/IMG_0591.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-9     " title="First bodywork" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_w-48POyKAOI/S_eB-3rG6iI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/z1SPS5kk6n8/s400/IMG_0591.jpg" alt="Our first purchase for the locost project" width="267" height="400" /></a><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">First bodywork</figcaption></figure>
<p>In my defense, I&#8217;ve been out of the country for two weeks. I was very fortunate to be able to spend a few days of my trip fly-fishing in Canada &#8211; what a wonderful experience. And I caught fish &#8211; three of them. One was over 24&#8243;, which is apparently quite good. I learnt a lot, and my fishing guide didn&#8217;t drown me (although at times I think he was tempted). The point of this slightly off-blog topic is that we have not been able to do anything significant on our racing car as a result.</p>
<p>The bright orange colour of the bodywork is less to do with taste, and more to do with finances. They were going cheap, and they can be repainted&#8230; But that decision is a LONG way off, so maybe they&#8217;ll stay orange.</p>
<p>The only other slight bit of progress is getting my hands on a copy of &#8220;the book&#8221;. It really is a useful document for figuring out how it all fits together (although we don&#8217;t exactly intend following the path of pure locost).</p>
<p>Onward and onward.</p>
