Ok we can dream..


I was doing some general tidying up, just got shot of two MI16 engines and stuff, moving my v6 into the garage etc..

So we uncovered the chassis to have a looka at it

I was one of the founder members of that club ..... Here we are, almost 3 years later .... Still not driven the Roadster for real :o :o

Driven miles & miles in the workshop & garden .... Got the sound just right, heck I have even got a dump valve :D

Looking cool TT :cool:

Well the V6 engine is now in the garage, which is quite untidy having had to extract a load of bits to sell

But the intention is to get teh 2.9 runnig on the garage floor, for 2 reasons.

1) I need to get that engine tested and have a loom for it.
2) I need a test loom for the white car as it's starting to give me a sense of humor failuer as it will not even fire!!


That MK1 golf shell is in the way too.. Can't seem to give it away!!
