Default Even colder today

Well it's -5 deg C in the workshop this morning.

Today i'll be mostly sitting by the fire & having a re-read of the Roadster book.

I did have a mad scary space heater once.

1 large bottle of propane used during a long weekend.

Now that's what I call scary !!

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

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

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

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

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
