Had to ask my IT guy to explane it to me....it is funny once you understand it.

MOSS Motors has wipers for the MG Midget. They should fit, here is their web address. Also if you call them their tech people are very good at figuring out what you have and need as a replacement. http://www.Mossmotors.com

Best reason for getting an musical insturment for yourself....

Glad I am my own BOSS then.....Thinking I just might make another 7 for myself.....I due have the welder and the tubing and a lot of other stuff. "The E-Viewer file is to big to upload or I would post that for your entertainment." If anyone would like the e-Viewer file let me know with a PM and I will send you the Zipped file.

OK....But that is way cool and one nice waiting room in your shop.

Well today was a little slow so I decided to model up the 7 so what due you think.

Bob your the MAN.........My wife would kill me if she found a car in the living room...electric or not....

Other factors look like a lot of corrosion at the seams.

Mazda you already play an insturment call a Franklin 7......you know the V8 pipes rumbling down the road....

Franlkin 7....transforms to.....Vader 7.....the Darkside of 7 ownership.....

I have to agree with Tom as I also have a Porsche (1970 914-6) and a 7 (Hand Built Replica) with only 120+HP and I preferr the 7 to the Porsche for fun plus it is the only car that I have ever owned that has had some of the local Porsche Club members protesting me and my 7 running at a club auto-x because they could not beat my times....had to laugh at that and the board members backed me up and said that I could run my 7 as long as the auto-x's are open to anyone if the number of Porsches did not fill the max cars for the auto-x.

That is amazing.

The link did not work as it says it is not avaiable.......bummer

Hi Jon, Sure looks good. Still remember the evening that you let me spend talking and looking at your Clone ATOM. Still hard to belive your abilities in your garage at your home. VERY NICE.

Did not realize the caveman had such great tast and were into 7's or did Mr. C steal the idea from them.

Here is something to sharpen your skills for finding hidden police cameras at least in England and Spain. http://www.speedcam.co.uk/game.htm

Agreed.....I guess it would be OK for a Mary K convention......

I have to agree with DB6 about the paint on a $25K to $60K car but if you are like me and build your own 7 from scratch then rattle can painting can be done with some practice and effort for under what a quart of PPG color paint will cost but it will never be a show quality finish, more of a track or fun-car finish (what I call a 15ft finish). Here is a photo of my car and its $28.00 paint job.

In Calif. the man can give you a ticket for that type of headlight cover on your street headlights but they also require that you have any off road lights covered if the vehicle has them and is used on the street such as the type mounted in a brush gard.

Nice 7...I like the color a lot and I agree with Tom about correcting those problems as soon as you can. PS: I think your Elise will be parked a lot more once the 7 shows up.

That is wild and the driver of that car is something else.

I England they call it an Auto Test or Gymkhana but here in the USA we tend to call any event in a parking lot or large area with cones an Autocross. Most auto-x her in the USA are more of a challange to the ability of the driver to operate their vehicle around a predetermined course in the fastest time without hitting any cones (usually adds 2 sec. for each cone hit) so it is more of a control test than a highspeed event usually. Here is a clip that is one of my favorite of a GYMKHANA / AUTO TEST in England in a small parking lot....wish I had the drivers abilities. Defination of a Gymkhana from Wikipedia: "Gymkhana events are time/speed events events (four our purposes here,) in an automobile. There can be obstacles such as cones, tires, and barrels. The driver is expected to maeuver through the predetermined "track" performing many different driving techniques. What separates gymkhana from your traditional autocross event is that in gymkhana drivers are required to perform reversals, 180 degree spins, 360 degree spins, parking boxes, figure 8s and other advanced skills. Also drifting is encouraged where helpful/necessary. Really though, you can consider any event a Gymkhana which has a starting point, a finish line and some sort of "obstacle" to get through, around, or by, and is timed!"

Under investigation forwhat and who is the DVLA.

The black material you are asking about are quarter doors. They actually reduce the amount of wind and road debree from entering the passenger compartment. A very nice option that you can make or purchase from Caterham if you have a Caterham and lots of $ as they are not cheap.

Well I went to Cars and Coffee in Irvine, CA. today and ran into Morgan and his 7 (AKA Orange). Morgan is enjoying his 7 a lot and is keeping it looking like new. Edited by MHKflyer52 Feb. 28, 09 at 10:43pm. Added attachment of photo.
