    Good Morning Wayne, this trip would be a trailer journey. Thankfully my Seven is very reliable, so I’m sure it would do ok. But you never know. Problem would be my lower back not putting up with it. My friend and fellow British car nut just purchased a new aluminum open trailer. He’s offered it many times now, so smart money would say use it…. I’ve been thinking about doing the Dragon for years, so I’m going to make a big push to do it…. I’ll keep you informed if your in the position to join me.. Happy Holidays..

    This is a contest I don’t want to win, 20 thousand miles in 20 years from brand new. I use to drive it in Pennsylvania winters till the roads got salted. But now at 65 I’m a sissy and hate the cold weather..😂 If things go as planned, I’m heading to the Tail Of The Dragon for a decent road trip in the spring…

    Morning Croc, Romans a Dad now so he’s a busy guy. I’ll send him a text and hopefully get a answer..

    There is a Facebook page dedicated to just SU carbs. Wish I had such a great resource when I had 4 cars in a row that were running SU’s.🍻

    Congratulations, you now have a Seven in one of the best specs ever made… 🍻

    I just saw a great video recently about Great British Sports Cars. Facebook doesn’t B.S.😂Very dedicated group that manufacture these. This one looks like an All- Star example. What I would give to have those seats in my Seven.. Good Luck with your Sale..🍻

    I’ve seen this Seven plenty of times, it’s beautiful. Good Luck Al… i added a photo from New Hope car show when You, Croc and I went last year.

    Holy Cow that’s awesome. Pretty light on details, but the cylinder head looks similar to the engine in a Radical Sports Racer. I’m sure one would have to up the driving skills to handle this beast….

    Two different gentleman contacted me a few months ago, asking if I was familiar with this particular S1. I told them I wasn’t not. Problem they were having was getting into contact with the owner..

    Nice Investigation here Mike( KitCat). If the asking price is 24 thousand dollars, I think this a great deal for a new owner. Buy it now, drive it for a year and sell it for more than you have in it if your tired of Seven ownership.. It’s the next owners move..

    Hi Stewart, I hope you and your Family are doing well. Steve

    Looked like a great buy to me, any decent Seven under 20 grand is a no brainer. Issues were mentioned previously, new Sevens have issues. That’s all part of the joys of owning one.. That’s what I was told 20 years ago when I bought mine brand new..🤪

    Thanks for the interesting chemistry lesson Gentlemen. As someone that worked in a petroleum refinery, it’s cool to learn about something a little different…. Class Dismissed…🍻

    Glad it arrived safe. You have my number, feel free to call for more discussions when you get some seat time… 🍻

    So this engine hasn’t run in ten years? If that’s the case I would send it off to a machine shop for a hot tank and cam bearings, freeze plugs. The bores may need a hone. Get the deck checked to see if it’s flat. Then new bearings and rings. While I had it apart , inspection of the valve train would be a smart move… I had a Cortina block in my FormulaFord, it used to be fairly inexpensive 30 years ago. Good Luck..

    Good Morning Bud, I personally love your new toy. May not be for everyone, there’s a tread going discussing wind buffering. I would think it could be a super fun track car. If you leave the rally tires on it, you could beat Croc by cutting across the grass and jumping a few corners… Enjoy it..🍻

    SOLEX carbs are clones of Weber carbs..??

    Congratulations John, all your skills and determination paid off well. Your dash is something that keeps drawing my attention. So clean and uncluttered. Nice job, Enjoy it…🍻

    Stock Zetec, not a SVT, fuel injection by WEBCON. I have a newer chip, supposedly better chip in the ECU, but no dyno sheet to make an honest comparison. Steve…

    Out in the garage changing the oil, so I took a picture of my water pump. 2002 Zetec, and I’ll throw in an old dyno pull.

    No problem, I found the information I was looking for. It was just was just were it’s supposed to be. My excuse is old with the wrong glasses on…🤓

    Chip Bond is long out of business. Sasco Motorsports in Halifax Virginia are vintage racers, their excellent…

    Today is the 20 year Anniversary of my Superformance S1 ownership. It’s the longest I’ve ever kept any car, 21000 miles and it has served us well.
