Stu,

Book me in for a ride. Did you change the wheel arches or just cobble the old ones back on?

Cobble is perhaps a slightly harsh word mark, but yeay I Bodged them on with some gaffer tape and sticky back plastic, I was just desperate to get it finished, still passed the mot and have not fallen off in the 70miles or so that I have done.

If you are off the weekend of the 31st give me a call.

Cheers for now

Stuart

Stu,

It would have to be Sunday - let's hope the rain stops for a while. (It's my daughter's birthday on Saturday).

I could do with some 4 wheeled motivation. If I don't get my chassis rolling by the end of February I might be tempted to give up! ;-(

I'll give you a call.

Mark

Sunday is good for me, I have just fitted the new carbs so I am hoping to take it for a spin this afternoon if the weather gets a bit better. Give me a call about lunch time tomorrow.

Cheers Stu. It was fun.

Suprised to find out you hadn't heard of an Austin Maxi ... pic at the following link.

What a blue beauty! Were you suggesting Stu trades in the Locost for that chunk of pure sporting machinery in your link!

Austin Maxi

When I was looking a Stu's car, I noticed that he was using Cortina Ball joints.

I mentioned I had bought Cortina ball joints but my wishbones were cut to fit maxi ball joints.

Young Stuart said he'd never heard of an Austin Maxi!
