    hi there Paul

    If you need an engine - I have 2lt here I was going to scrap....was out of a 56 SWB

    It was a runner but it got hot......and head gasket is shot...

    Again for a few beers its yours but it will need re-building or checking - its not much but its a start if its any help.

    Again all the best - and looking great

    G'day Chris,

    Yes she has a nice 202, which I'll probably leave in there for a while. It runs fine but would love to eventually return it to Solihull product.

    Olute is not yet registered - still haven't worked out how to firm up those rear brakes - may have to take it to an expert.

    Yes I am in the LROCV, #854- although never seems to make it to the meetings. I often start work at 0600 so often don't make it past 9pm ...hehehe (Living up to my name!)
    I went on quite a few trips in 2002 and 2003 although can't seem to find much time now I'm on shift work.

    Paul

    I can cruise up hills fine in my 2.0L 53... It's got plenty of power without putting unnecessary strain on my gearbox/axles.

    I know how you feel Jock. Can't wait for a roof on my Carport. Lucily I have some concrete, so that is a start.

    Got 2 days off and the forecast is for more rain bugger.

    I will pull oulte out tomorrow for some more shots with the new camera

    Good news from the builder. Says he is putting the roof on the carport next week. I'll believe it when I see it. Funny how they suddenly find the time when they get a letter from a solicitor

    So with the drizzly rain haven't had a chance to get out and work.

    The seat bases are nearly done. Got a sneak peak.



    These are all new bases that my wheelchair building buddy has knocked up. Pretty nice for a first effort at car seats - I suggested to him he should branch out.
