theres a search function?[:D]
no i think its just the time of year, things will improve.... even i managed to get out on the car for a few hours today, most of it spent explaining what it was to younger passers by, yes it does run to older passers by and wishing i had a garage to lock it away in as then had to put bits back together before i packed up for the night....[B)]

suprisingly my boys said to me yesterday would i mind if they did some work on the car as i'm in work a lot and cant get on it.... i agreed and they said they will start this weekend.....wondering what i have done, ok they nearly 24 but mostly their interest has been in saying why isnt it finished..... shall keep you posted.

Well, to add my two cent worth, the machinist is busy with my short block boring out the cylinders to +.040 to accept the new UK spec pistons. The other machinist has finished going through the head and he's installed all new valves seats and guides. He's also done a mild grind on the cam. So, if God is willin' and the creek don't rise, I should be able to get it all together and be on the road with a peppier wedge by summer.
Also scored a Rimmer rebuilt propshaft for US$40. Made my day.
