If anyone would be interested in my car please PM me. Built 340, heaps of good parts etc.£13K spent in total,.transmission removed for rebuild so no rush.
With the best will,please don't write in saying 'keep it mate' etc.
I'm tired of working on 40 year old iron in relative isolation and with Shakey closing my direct involvement with the club will be necessarily reduced.

Pressure group going trying to get a strip agreed in the build of the Circuit of Wales. Might be worth going slow on the sale. ;-)

Cheers guys, it's not a definite yet, but I wanted to see if there was any MMA interest which there has been.
I tend to vaccilate between wanting classic Mopar or something newer that fits a different perspective like my former Grand National or maybe a well worked Fox Mustang.

Miles hold off to the spring we all come out of Xmas with car blues and money worries.
Good point about shakey tho when that goes Santa Pods going to be rammed with motors and getting a run down the strips going to be even more difficult .. Might be chance for some of the other tracks open events to kick in.
Chin up mate

Cheers Rich, just did an hour under the car getting the last few bits out of the way for trans removal.
There's no rush on a decision hence I've only flagged it up to MMA folk. It'll be a month by the time I get the trans job turned around as I need parts for the job and may also invest in a PTC convertor.
The muscle car scene in Cornwall barely exists; me, Mad Machs and another Mopar mate of mine.

That's just in Newquay, plenty more around down here.
Anyhow, enough excuses, just get the damn thing back together

Not exactly a muscle car but I used to see a 57 Chevy parked outside his house, on the road to Widemouth Bay from the A39, last time we were down that way (summer 2014)

Dart........... auto 727
Mustang..........auto 5 speed auto overdrive
f 100 ......... 4 speed manual overdrive.
I must say I much prefer the autos
Stick with auto miles, you know it makes sense
