Steve-B Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 i left Alan grinning from ear-to-ear at RatRace earlier where his freshly repaired, repainted, and now wide-track'd car was warming up ready to go suspect he's not going to be around the parts much for a few days Steve B Big Black Beast^3 USA 2005: How the West Was Driven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 And yay! I've got my emeralded, Jenvey'd, DVA'd engine running today. I need to sort out a slight leak from the camcover and recharge the laptop batteries before venturing out, but so far, it looks good... ...the way things have gone so-far, I'm prepared for disappointment when it gets on the road, but this is the best it's been so far....

Myles Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Oh dear. Runs OK - or well-enough to get to Emerald, but I appear to be getting water in the oil again. Suspect I'm going to have to pull it all apart again and spend tons more money. Project Scope-Creep is underway...

Alan L Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 A BIG to Steve for popping me over to Ratrace Sat AM to pick the car up. It was great to get back in the car and despite it being cold I managed to put 150 miles on the clock. A couple of minor jobs fro me to do but it looking like it is going to be a good summer 😬.

Myles Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Neil - I'm just steeling myself to go out and check the coolant-level before (hopefully) venturing out for some more running-in mileage... It's a bit like opening the envelope containing your exam-results*... *OK, for some people . I was really rather good at exams, but it was always a tense experience...

Tony Whitley Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Myles, DON'T LET THAT MAN ANYWHERE NEAR YOUR CAR He just looked at mine last year and everything's gone wrong with it since. Saturday: pressed the stick-on rear-view back on... and the screen cracked from top to bottom. That's six months after his malevolent presence visited *eek* M1 7 SMW 1.4-now-1.8K Mem.No. 10376 Picture here 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Whitley Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Coo ❗ Have I been blackballed 🤔 Despite my best efforts (including teeing off at the Royal Ascot Golf Club during Diana's funeral) I've never managed that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Did they have Diana's funeral at the R&A then? I can see why they might be a bit miffed at that... I'm not out of the woods-yet - went for a 50-60 mile drive today and I'm a little concerned by slightly low OP. Maybe I drove past Dave or something... 😳 Project Scope-Creep is underway...
