Dave, as Fuzz mentioned I have a full set up that's no longer required. Give me a ring if you're interested as I could do with the space! Mark 07540937879

No update in 4 weeks.......and all I've managed to do is smooth & paint the engine cover. Been using it for work a bit to get some miles on the new motor and all is well so far, unfortunately something air cooled has my attention at the moment so reconsidering the rado's future.

Back in one piece, a quick blast home and I'm happy with the new motor. Unfortunately I now have a water leak from bottom rad hose and by the time it was cool enough to look at the Grand Prix was starting so its now tomorrow night's job Engine cover has been dropped off at a mates body shop for colour coding just so the new manifold isn't the only shiny bit under the bonnet (engine bay in definite need of a clean) Quick pic next to the daily. Thanks Mark

You mean the crank sensor fitting tool?

An update Out with the old New one in Back together and keeping good company in Fuzz's barn, Sunday morning should see the front end back on & a test drive. Keen to see what the new motor & 6 branch are like so here's hoping for decent weather.

I'd love to go to Le Mans & the road trip with it, something for next year I reckon.

Dad and I have been the last few years and loved it, this year however this year we're giving Silverstone Classic a go.

I'm the same so was a little surprised this morning when I found myself liking it. Even the other half came out with "doesn't look bad that" :clap::clap:

Grace probably gets out on her bike more than I do mine.

It's been an expensive month, first... BBS RX 228's, 17 x 7.5. Always been a fan of 1 piece rims so couldn't turn these down, even better there's 5 of them, all with good Toyo proxes. The down side is the daft colour and the plan is to refinish them in silver before fitting them....... So, here they are fitted:bonk: Had a test fit this morning and ended up leaving them on, oddly I quite like it. Probably going to run them like this for the rest of the summer but repaint them when the rest of the body work is done. New motor has been sourced along with a few other nice bits (6 branch), should be fitted in a few weeks all being well. Mark

Silver G60 in Bishop Auckland this afternoon about half 5.

I'm with you for originality and only really like subtle alterations. The original lights and wiper set up are in the back of the garage should I fancy swapping them back one day.

Bugger. Think I may have tempted fate in an earlier post regarding the oil burning problem. Plenty of blue smoke & no2 plug fouling with oil. Plan hatched for a replacement motor that I'm due to collect in the morning. Kept myself entertained tonight though by fitting all red rear's and removing the wiper assembly (didn't work anyway) More tomorrow. Mark

Spotted this on Motor's coverage of Knockhill the other week. I know your series sometimes races with Northern Saloons (a mate has ran in for a few years) any plans on coming down to Croft with them? Mark
