Good use of the gaffa tape there in Mark's windscreen!
Cracking shot of Phil!

Some cool shots there Mike.

Driving to work in the polo today I found myself sitting at 50mph and using engine braking, and when it started to rain, I just didnt switch the wipers on!!!

Think Steve's 30hp needs a Judson, not Deano's

50mph seemed so fast on the last leg home down the M3

That really did start to concern me on how slow we were going.. and I didn't have any speedo!!.

Effectively you have a heavier bus with the same setup.. something not quite right there.. But you know Steve.. he'll just plod along..

Having the Judson on is gonna be bonkers!! (in 30hp terms )

I was slowing down to 25 on the big hills, and Steve still wasn't keeping up... It was pretty scarey watching you disappear off the back of the convoy (Reckon we avaraged about 40mph)

On the plus side, our fuel consumption for the trip must be amazing

Definately... Maybe get Bex to drive the truck there and me in the panel..

As promised - Prototype fuel tank measurer has progressed.
Revision A - built before my missus got home last night is now toast, Revision B and hopefully final version should be built tonight as she is out. Based on the one Tonny had.
Just got a man to knock me out the most intricate lettering and vw symbols.
Post up a pic when its done.

Mark

Queues likely!!



Camp as you like....!



Barndoor culinary delights!!!





OG Beats a little chef hands down!!!

Deano - sounds good. Roll 'em both! If the truck's done as well as the '53 it will be available for lease for the weekend.

Mark, Show us your rod then!!!

Great Pics,
I was bloody hungry by then, i think thats Phil's usual diet.
Ah the odd girl licking my roof, strange end to the evening, funny though. Do you remember the seat conversation - boy that was heavy going

Ok so here is revision B, now too scrap. Font was too large.
The first one i did was stamped digits and stamped divisions but it was too hard to paint and im too much of a kack handed flid to get them straight and the stamps curved the stick.
Not going for spot on just kinda simular and usefull...


more pics please........

Thats awesome!!!! top work pal!!
