Dang you know these cars don't you? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I'm sitting on the original Dunlop front laced wheels. I have robbed the spare of a few spokes already. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> When this economy turns for the better I'll get wider center laced Daytons for her. A little more tire in the wheel wells changes the looks from elegant to mean.

I have a lot of work to do to tidy this thing up but it isn't as bad as you think. The quirks don't irritate me too much because we are dealing with an antique and if I wanted a sterile performer I'd get an Evolution or something. Honestly though where is the fun in not having to watch gauges like a hawk during your entire drive. The smell of leather,gasoline and oil wafting through the cockpit and the feel of every bump in the road are pleasures you just don't get in newer cars.

Classic British motoring!......The sounds, the smells, the feel...just bring a spare.
