I'm pretty sure I have that hat.

Sevens terrorize Woods Hole. None of them are mine -- I had the Elan out this time.

Adding diodes to a diode circuit. Strange.

Because Kalifornia doesn't allow gas stations to sell it.

https://www.toptiergas.com/ That will show stations with good gas, not necessarily the octane you want.

It really has. Our household has three financial 'pots': household, into which we both contribute funds, and then his/hers. (It's a second marriage and we both came into it with our own financial situations; we've largely kept it that way.) There is very little in the way of extras in that 'household' pot; it consists almost entirely of essential, keep-the-roof-over-our-head costs. Groceries, taxes, insurance, heating, etcetera. I keep track of our household expenditures and reconcile the whole works once a year. We both contribute a fixed amount monthly based on what I find. That amount has nearly doubled just in the past 3 years.

I took a guess, turned out I was right and then some. "Coccodrillo" is the Italian word for crocodile, but it also refers to several popular brands, places, and historical projects. Meanings and Uses Animal: The large aquatic reptile found in tropical regions. Idiom: Lacrime di coccodrillo means "crocodile tears" (insincere sorrow). Children's Clothing: Coccodrillo is a well-known European brand providing kids' jackets, sweaters, and denim. Italian Restaurant: Coccodrillo Berlin is a popular, vibrant trattoria in Germany run by the Big Mamma Group. Military History: The Coccodrillo was an Italian medium support tank project from the 1960s that was ultimately canceled in favor of the Leopard 1.

Congratulations on the sale! Can I ask about the source of that car cover?

Hopefully you'll do a writeup describing the track. I'd love to hear how a Caterham feels in that bowl turn.

Dupe

Did you start at the back? Any of his luck rub off?

Sent you a PM.

I have 4 Vredstein 165/70R 13 Quatrac 5 tires I will be removing from wheels shortly. They were on my Lotus Elan; I have replaced them and don't need them. Late 2023 and early 2024 date codes. Almost zero miles, I'd put mileage around 100 or so -- really. I would rather see someone get some use out of them rather than hand them over to the tire people when they take them off the wheels, so I am open to any offer. I don't see shipping as being practical but I am willing to discuss meeting partway etc. for pickup. Someone please take them!

This eliminated the bulk of the fuel smells in my garage; before I did this it was BAD bad. However Webers will still emit some fuel vapors so it did not get completely eliminated. If you really want to go the charcoal canister route try looking for systems for 60's muscle cars. Several of them out there.

Can you post a link or part number? I just spent 10 minutes on their site and came up empty.

Street brawl?

Thanks for sharing the photos. That has to be a fantastic experience for both of you. And -- hey, that's my dry sump tank!

Ditto the sims. All I do is run into stuff.

Gorgeous color.

Uhh my last post was about front brakes.

I suppose it's possible to have a completely full master cylinder reservoir and thereby keep pressure in the system such that it would push the wheel cylinder pistons outward, but it's doubtful. Easy fix as well, just lower the level. A twist of the bleeder screw should produce a squirt of fluid if there is pressure in the system also. Absent anything like that, the return springs will press the pistons back into the cylinders when the pedal is released. I have worked on a ton of drum brakes over the years. I do not see an adjustment mechanism in that picture. I can imagine a cam of some sort behind the shoes, with a screw head stick out of the backing plate to allow adjustment, but I don't see anything like that in the picture.

They look very much like the Weller Racing wheels that came with my Caterham. Steel wheels, very lightweight.
