Hey RB, what can I say. I've never been a wheel trim type person before either, but I've never been down the stock look, road before. Time for a change

The wheel trims, I'm already bidding on thanks.

Sorry Craig and RB - not up to speed with the music humor......

This Andre was a reputed builder of very serious engines.............. but, although I have one, from the outside - it just looks like a red six to me........
-don't know what to expect - may not even use it - the V6 proposition is looking much more appropriate......

frats,
Rosco

ps - sorry for the psyche stuff - pretty tired last night...... just an attempt to explain my "normal" train of thought.......... frightening stuff - we don't want to go there..............do we?

Welcome to the machine, RB......sometimes feel a bit sorry for those who haven't been to our "zone" - makes a person enjoy life when it's so good - even a normal someone's worst ever day is much better to some from where I've been and sometimes get dragged back into.....enough, no more to say on this......ever!

Engine - sorry, will keep it, it may become a "collector's" item in decades to come - or I'll complete the original modification project............. 105 weeks to start making decisions.....

Malcolm, this is the last you'll see of me in this thread in non-related matters....sorry, tired again........

frats,
Rosco

Malcolm,
those thumb prints - I have seen two different styles - I don't know which is authentic............. others should jump on me here - for your information.....


And the Webers - I don't know much about them - the chap I bought the car chose them because once set up - he believed they would stay "in tune" longer than the SU's.............. I have absolutely no knowledge of any of this - you state you've been there - and so, are qualified to return to that option...... I haven't given this car one jot of thought as to what I will do with the mechanicals - the body is - well, in need a of a lot of "tender loving care"..... structurally magnificent ...... body appeal - zilch......he's hit it with the "gas axe" and added metal extensions using a lot of "stick"................... arrgghhhhhhh - angle grinder(s) much needed......
and.............. HQ wagon tail-lights......they'll be the first to "leave the building"......(no pun intended)


frats,
Rosco
