Thanks Andi, good meet with a surprise drive around Cannock Chase.

Having spent 10 years in Birmingham City centre and 20 years near Leicester city centre, I really appreciate the Chase now. It feels like a Californian or Canadian forest.

Apart from the slight nagging doubt of getting whacked by a Deer, it is a kit car dream.

Cheers for coming and great to meet some newish faces.

BBC looks ok

Hi Max.

I think its the best kit car show ive been to.

However the last few years have been a smidge quieter  and yes you could see it all in one day, allbeit a bit knackering.

This year I do not know what to expect, will it be quiter due to the dreaded C word?

Or will it be total mayhem as people are finally let out?

I personally love the evening stuff. Walking round the tent and club areas, dumping myself in the middle of some unfortunate random club gathering and most of all, getting popped up in the Rhocar club tent.

See you there

Looking at the MOT history there have been a lot of failures based on emissions. What was needed to correct this to get it to pass?

An MOT tester who knows his stuff I reckon.

Should just be a visual smoke test on the old pinto, but some garages insist on giving it the modern emissions test which is wrong.

I just used an old choke pulley button thingy and mounted it to the dash, connected it to the fuel enrichment on the carbs. Job done

Mine was just behind the bulkhead, so much higher. But I kept getting the fumes. So I just ran a pipe to the ground.. Sorry Greta

Andi

Pitch 31 by the cut..

It certainly is picking up. I find myself having to "learn" to have fun and socialise all over again... Which is brilliant.

Hi and a warm welcome to all the new folk in the club. You will not regret it.

Check out when your local area meetings are and pop along if you like.. Or just ask away on the forum. No question is daft, only the one`s that are not asked.

Andi

Or there is this

Ahh The power of Facebook. It certainly does have its uses.

Andi

Hi Graeme. I cannot remember the sizes. But they worked perfectly. Much better than the pinto way of doing things. I'm sure someone will be along shortly with the sizes answer.
