looks like this drag day was the KICK UP THE ARSE some of us needed
nothing like a bit of pressure to get thing done

Aaaahhhh you Feckers feckers feckers, I'm sitting in Luxembourg after having 4 days without 3G or Wifi, I'm about to arrive at Spa tomorrow for Le Bug Show an it's all happening back home!

It's a long way to go collect the prizes for ya feckers but it had to be done.

The race car will be there......

[wackerwacker]

thanks podsyb and colin for the offers i will get back to you

got some high lift rockers today which is nice

i'm looking for some good rods if anyone has some they want to sell

 

[colin]

Yep. the advance is locked. still a long way to go yet. Have to dismantle the whole lot to get it back in the car. too big to fit in the way it is.

Ross - It ain't pretty, but should do the job!!

 

[56oval]

Love it colin, i have 2 carbs here if you need spares and a bored venturi too.

 

[colin]

Thanks for the offer. I'll get it fired and see how it runs, then work on the carb. I've booked a week in August off work, so I'll get stuck into it then.

well we got a lot of the welding done but still a bit to do


got the drivers side cut out tonight so will tidy it up and weld in the new channel and floor tomorrow

still have to put an engine together for it . we are just raiding the shed for parts to build this car so who knows what engine it will have .i dont have any 1800 or 1900 engines laying around so it may be all noise and no go .
