      Only for the meetings when i'm using the car, might be a bit quick for Andy

      Seriously I'd love to have a little escort to shove the pinto in but at the prices they are now I think I'd have to spend 5 figures to get a shell anywhere near as good as Andys or my sierra. Maybe Dave could lend me his mk1 capri?

          Good, its all done apart from needing a donor YB for the winter engine build, the rest of the car is in good shape so hopefully we will have both cars running for the start of next season.

            Never i am afraid. It would ruin the character of the car. Ray was even talking about changing the colour scheme the other weekend. He soon changed his mind as he was getting off the floor holding his nose

              Maybe he wanted to paint it black, like you asked him to.. 20 years ago

                    Well you know Aaron will have the engine ready in time, us and Ray will get the engine bay repainted and better than ever and hopefully a couple of weekends work will see the brakes and suspension sorted.
