silver or light grey


I think so too.

You guy's are correct!  Nice color Dr.!

I love the global aspect of this group. Someone is always complaining about the environment they have to work in and the comments straighten out my whining.  i.e....

I had trouble with the self closing draft strip along the bottom of my garage door and there was also something wrong with the humidity control system. Still, I soldiered on. The Colonel's diesel jet heater was just the job

My garage has a draft and the humidity problem makes things feel worse.  It's the third week of 100 + degree days.  106 on the car outside temp readout as I was coming home wondering what race parts can I work on. While I am thinking if I get up early enough to beat the sun I might be able to get some work in. Then I remember it's Sunday tomorrow.  No noises early.   So, I'm off to look at a mini split ductless heat pump for the improtant part of the house that now relies on outside air for temp modulation of the work space.

The car is looking good.

It's just a shame Goggles didn't post the other, more blurry picture, where you could see the draft strip

I was at Richard Assen's place in summer last year and it was well hot in his shed where he works on his bike.
He went out side for a minute, turned a tap, flicked a switch, and suddenly it got very cool.
He has a big water tank outside his shed and some plumbing to spray water on the outside of the roof with a pump
You could feel the temperature drop straight away

.....found some "chrome" truck paint that I bought for about 10 bucks for a bucket years ago(10?) when a paint shop was going under.... shot some onto the front axle which has always been done in "aluminium silver"....doesn't look like a saucepan now.

Charlie Wilde has a shed in his back yard, I was in it sweltering when it was new and I'd just built the studio for Charlie Macneil in the caravan where we'd used 1 inch polystyrene to insulate it, I told charlie W......next time I went there he'd done it , walls and roof......... it was unbelievable, a single bar radiator was all it needed it the depth of winter.

Hey Wayno, chuck an amp in the truck for Speedweek, Don, stock up on jokes.....Bill, I'll be seeing the Spud.

Good news indeed.

Was there ever a doubt?

I'm grounded with work, but I'll be meeting up with Max before the end of July.  Expect a small care package along with Graham's 970 Cooper block.

Consider amp chucked.  Woo hoo. Wayno

[Moxnix]

I'll bring a small amp w/ a lesser grade Fender bass if someone wants to play it besides me.

Quote from the Doc: " Hey Wayno, chuck an amp in the truck for Speedweek, Don, stock up on jokes.....Bill, I'll be seeing the Spud." Does this mean we will be seeing you in August James?? I'll bring the tequila and I have a trick hand powered blender, see you at the 221 4VF/L pits!!

Hi Rex

A few yrs back i saw a guy with a small block powered blender, just a tad overkill for Margareta City

Don

Don there is no such thing as OVERKILL for Margareta City.

Bring your own hose for your straw. Regulate the size by your capacity/hour.

Can you imagine the modesty of Rex suggesting his "hand powered blender?"  You bet.

The hand probably presses the button to fire up a nitro hemi on a 53 foot semi trailer.

I been jumping up and down and running around the house incessantly since I decided, then I saw 970 Cooper block and went "oh , yeah, that"....I'd been conveniently forgetting that I had to do other stuff than look at cars, talk sheet and drink margaritas...I have to work even harder than last year. Last year I had seventy interviews and wrote two big stories and three little ones.This year it'll be twice that.....I just hope I haven't got the week-long hangover that I generated in LA this time 'round...

I'll be jumping freights, Simon is getting in late due to work commitments here and Grumm is staying a week longer than I can, so in with the Colonel and out with the Shutterbugger.....Motel 6 here we come. I can almost smell it ...............

How are those T-shirts Rev?

   Looking forward to it
