Seems I remember a post about a new project a couple weeks ago. Someone with a handle similar to Alligator denied it and insisted there was nothing new in the works. NOW there is something new. Hardly seems fair, with such a collection already. Giving anything up?

Lucky, See if your state has a paper tag for temporary use. For example, in Texas, I got a 30 day temp tag for $25 (actually many times). Beats a rush job on a trailer, and takes the pressure off the INSPECTION/registration process. Used the frame number, insurance, and no inspection required. Most states also have a "trip tag" for unregistered vehicles, but you would fudge a bit, since you're not going anywhere one way, but it may give you something to laminate and hang on the car going to inspection, etc.

Project? Yes, we loves Project. Tell, Master Croc.

At last, the cone catcher photo.

If one is only going to hit cones (not tire walls, etc), you can use a cone catcher. After a couple repairs, I decided to let the cones suffer. (Darn, nevwer had a problem attaching photos before)

But it is funny. If they knock a 0 off the price, someone would drop in a SBC and be a hit at the next Grassroots 2019 Challenge. Or end up like the mythical guy that put a rocket in the back of an old Chevy...

Croc totally missed this one! Being a Texan, the seller is willing to take trades. https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/d/kerrville-rare-1958-vintage-custom-mini/6832559618.html

I kept my face straight. How much was the bet for?

Just noticed that even the dolly has holes. Colin would be proud. All it needs now is a loose wheel. http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=14235&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1529872475

Thought it was the store where your wedding registry was! :smilielol5: Now that is COLD! Wish I'd have thought of it.

If you can stand ramps, Harbor Freight has aluminum 6' ramps for about $100 (set, with coupon). I use them with my tilt trailer because it has a bed all the way across and the approach angle won't work. U Haul will want to know what car is going on the trailer. I rented from them twice with the Birkin. I gave them the weight, dimensions of tire contact patches (inside and out, etc). They had to call HQ to get the OK, but finally did. They have 2 sizes of car haulers. Make sure the person you talk to is not thinking you want a tow-dolly. The only way to know if they will approve the mini van is to ask them.

" or possibly a new one I had not heard about." What!! Croc, the Guru has not heard of ?? I move we assign Croc the job of registrar of all cars Seven. (thought he already was) OK, mine is Birkin Chassis #410. Start the list. Mike

You could have one made to look just like youur own: http://www.mycaterham.com/17619/4886.html

"Travelling without my computer this morning." How can that be? Croc without a computer? No, I must have read it wrong. Is it possible that such a high tech, up to date, civilized man is in a location with no computer? Mind boggling. Back in the out-back? Climbing the Matterhorn? Unbelievable.

How did they get her hair to do that?

While Croc is basking in his (well deserved) glory, there are cars of interest(?) on BAT: Caterham: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2002-caterham-super-seven-2/ Modified, ahem, Panoz AIV that could wake you up: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2003-panoz-custom-roadster/

He could just as easily learn a Texas Accent. No offence to all Bubba persons reading. PC and what not. #presentcompanyexcepted

Jeez! Nothing for sale since 12/19? Well here's one from BAT: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2008-lotus-2-eleven-roadster-3/

Cool lights. Now you'll need a Mini Battery Tender.

And after you paint it in Team Caterham colors, maybe you can get all kinds of matching gear at Speedgear, probably discounted too.

Jim, Sweet. In my younger days I had an R75/5 (toaster) as my daily transport. Before I got the Seven, I thought about an airhead. But, being older, I went with the Birkin. You've got the best of both worlds. Congrats, Mark
