 Re: Late night garage pics......Familiar sight ?
Generally, I love late-night working on my car... except when I wake up to discover that I've made some ridiculous decision based on over-tiredness or inhalation of solvents. Quick (and oh-so-polite-though-nosy) question: what is this? Attachment:

Is that a Chesil kit? What's it based on? A VW?

 Re: Late night garage pics......Familiar sight ?
Actually came from Florida, (hence LHD), Florida>Hull>Scotland.....CMC, 1600cc, goes and handles surprisingly well for its humble underpinnings. I bulit it up over a coulple of years and got it legal last summer,put on around 2k shakedown miles, (including a maiden 450mile trip, on a new engine, with no weather gear and a leaking fuel tank  ..... Fortunately the gods smiled on me and I had a beautiful run home in shirt sleeves as the sun went down ....I got to pretend I was in california...

That's the 'first line of defence' fire extinguisher, isn't it? If that fails, time to break out the real deal. Ken Sean wrote: Love picture no 2 the coffee mug on the airfilter another piece of genius design. Just weary looking at it
