Which series was that Oz? > That was the whole point of using only one throat of each weber! Yeah, I'll bet, but I still haven't worked out how cutting the *side* off them made any difference to the length. Perhaps you'd like to share a photo or two? :) > How's the memory? Mine's fine, but yours seems to have more holes than a chunk of Swiss cheese. What was that class again? :) -- Regards, Noddy.

Having a new SS exhaust system fitted to one of the cars. Might be a little busy for a couple of days with that....Yes Nod..a couple of days. Miss me!

They were well could have been pictures of your family Oz (I only ever saw one), but the point at the time was that no one *but* you could possiby know who they were, so it was a little baffling as to why you offered them up. What what I recall, it was three people heavily dressed in snow gear standing a *long* way from the lens. What that was supposed to "prove" to anyone God only knows. It'd be no different to me taking a picture of myself standing outside my house saying "This is me outside my palace". Unless you know me, you'd have no idea if it was me or someone else. > Maybe the couple I posted of the Dodge Magnum with the trim strips > missing...that weren't mine either..according to you and your clowns. > > Sure Nod...Sure! Maybe you could show a photo of your Lancia parked next to your supercharged Mitsubishi, or a picture of your Mini engine showing your intricate manifold and cut down carb arrangement. You know, something *detailed* that ties in with some of your claims that isn't easily faked :) -- Regards, Noddy.

Ahhhhh PROVE IT... While you're at it, maybe you could get a few copies of the ones for UK, Canada, USA etc etc...and check ALL of them for heads. BTW do your copies have Australia on them?
