if i'd known i'd get a welcome like this i'd've come back ages ago! lol!
aye, was a nice hood! if it got tipped when the place was cleared then it's one of those things, but if i see it for sale i'll know it right away and have words!
i think it's been toned down a little, or had been when we last spoke. in the nicest way..., i don't think he thought i was being 100% when i said it drove on the street better than some of my street motors, even with that cam, convertor, mod'd carb and tiny jag radiator, it never overheated (except when i forgot to turn pump on!) and was so reliable! i'm not sure if i convinced him to put it back as it was or not!
I missed the swap meet dude, not by much by the looks, though i'm not sure it woulda been worth taking what i have left up there, ie, nothing for 50p and nothing much shiney, both of which are required to turn on the majority of the rodders up there and persuade em to prize open their wallet!
sell me stuff? i'm sure you could with what you've had off me over the years, I do miss it, but it's nice earning money, taking in the races etc, without being covered in oil and generally wondering about looking like a pikey at the track!
now where's that miscreant Crewe lot got to then?
i'm told Ray is still mincin' about selling motors with a rather camp swagger,
Bri has just completed the first stage of his new diet by removing the sideburns and buying a new golf cardigan,
& that Dunc can still be found polishing Rays big end well into the night out in the workshop? nothin changes up there eh!
right, must dash, dinners on the table, thanks for the warm welcome chaps,
ps, does this forum not have a multi-quote facility? this post took ages!
