I wondered how you were coping with this cold weather. Resin & all that stuff. :eek:

I bet it is very cold down in that valley, all that water must act like a magnet for the frost. :confused:

Thought for one moment, the price on that F1 was the companys phone number. :D

Here you go, it's a bit more expensive than most kit cars, Ultima & GT40 replicas exempt :rolleyes:

It's very good mind, a major step up from doing locosts.

I'd love one of them, but I can't afford one.

If only there was a cheaper road legal version available ;)

Cheers

Chris :)

I don't envy you working outside on heavy plant.

Done some repairs inside the bowels of a combine harvester this summer. It reminded me why I gave up on the agricultural repairs.

It has been cold though. :eek:

Hows the build coming on Les ?

I use to be an agricultural engineer too, had my fair shair of welding up broken loader frames in mid winter and grinding in valves in some farmers draughty cow shed or replacing some dodgy fitting hydraulic hose when you cant feel your fingers on a cold winters morning! nope, never again.... main dealers VW workshop for me!!! :) 22 degrees c in winter and a coffee machine close to hand too! cant beat it! :D

been there, got the T shirt, didnt like it, changed it for something more sensible! :D

nothing wrong with changing a set of straw walkers in mid summer catching some rays and admiring the landscape!! :D

"done it!"
