  1. Thanks for the comments chaps. Amazon UK have it going fairly cheap so I will order a copy. steve
  2. Huge improvement on the original. Great work but just maybe the cycle fenders??? steve
  3. Whilst browsing about I found this: http://www.amazon.com/The-All-American-Hot-Rod-Legends/dp/0760338280 Anyone recommend it as a worthwhile addition to my library? Thanks steve
  4. Driving to and from work in the sunshine with the top down of my Saab 9-3 convertible and signing along to Alice Cooper's Poison, Mearloaf's Bat Out Of Hell and Judas Priest's Breaking The Law VERY LOUD! It's all country lanes so nobody could hear... steve
  5. Saw the doctor today and, although I still need a blood test and an ECG to sure, he said that basically my heart is fine. I still have to live a 'healthy lifestyle' (decaf coffee, lower salt intake, more veg, etc) but it certainly beats the opposite. steve
  6. Are you sure that isn't a real car???? That's stunning. steve
  7. Been there too Bill. You have to think of what's best for the cat. It can be tough but sometimes you have bite the bullet. steve
  8. Here's one taken at the show. I can dig out some others if you want? (That's my good lady Jean at the back. Her maiden name was Duncan.) steve
  9. Coming home after successfully exhibiting my layout at a two-day model railway show. steve
  10. Looks like another raid on the wallet... A flathead would look good in this too. steve
  11. Ah, I see. Good luck with Rover mill! steve
  12. How come the Spitfire bonnet on the GT6? It won't clear the 6 pot engine. steve
  13. I guess the old Monogram Yellow Jacket is non-starter too? steve
  14. Dennis, Thanks for the update. Pity really, it would have made a great re-issue. steve
  15. Being glad that the UK has a National Health Service. So I was able to let me go to my GP, be sent to a hospital immediately for a battery of tests to check on my potential heart problem (arrythmia). And it didn't cost me a penny. steve
  16. A '51 Chevy truck looking very rat rod style. Not many of them in the UK! steve
  17. Getting some work done on two of my model railway layouts and spending some useful time in the sunshine tidying up part of the garden. steve
  18. Until I saw it done it just never occurred to me. Such a simple and easy thing too. I could kick myself... steve
  19. I built one of these in the early 1970s when it came out. Mine was done as a rally service 'barge' (as the support vehicles were known then). steve
  20. Something I've never really understood is using 3 (or sometimes 6) carburetors on a V8 engine. Surely 2, 4 or even 8 would produce a more even fuel flow? Can anyone explain it, simply? cheers steve
