DB6

I have 2.5 on the pan , and 3 on the gear box armour ring. First thing I bottomed out on, (and ripped the honey comb off) was the side exhuast on the ramp in to the local post office. One thing to note as well, the clearance is def, lower with 2 ppl in the car than one( yeah I know it is obvious) , as I learnt with my son in the car going to the local Subway, nothing worse than hearing that scrrrrrreeeeeech. The closer it is to the ground the bigger the man.

that 15 car makes a 7 look like an Escalade.

err, 250 for mainly street use??? think on my friend.

I guess so, the red and green looks a lot more radical too. You notice on the Clasic Car site how many 7,s are for sale in the UK and how much lower the prices are across the board.

Bruce, you forgot this bad boy mirror,lol. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C77627#

Looks like fun. I love the steering wheel and the huge mirror hidden in the cowl.

All Better

just thumbnails. So how do you upload a full size quality pic?

I call the UK weekly, mainly friends and family. I have Sprint PCS cell phone, the overseas plan is @ $5.00 per month then 4 cents a min, which is about the going rate. The cards are good to carry too, Costco does a good deal on them if you want to call from any land line. NOTE, these rates apply to you calling a regular land line if you choose to call a cell phone in the UK you will pay 4 to 10 times the rates quoted above (depending who you use). Hope this helps. Incoming calls are no more expensive to the receiver wherever they originate from.

794 pounds with a mind boggling 10 hp.(thats with full hard top) Notice how the body style and even the head lights look similar to a current 7 even some 90 years later. (Some say they even prefer the "basic no-frills performance of these originals, I saw one hold it's own against an Exige just 2 weeks ago) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1926.Austin.Seven.saloon.jpg On a serious note, how do I upload a pic that shows on here , I can only do the linky thing.?

Austin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1926.Austin.Seven.saloon.jpg any chance of a V8 in that bad boy?

I was reading his website, now that is some funny stuff. Read the description of his 7,s and "the dilution factor", all backed up by the legal button on the bottom of the page that says, in a nutshell, we are not responsible for anything we say or do: http://www.newenglandclassics.com/showroom/ I also see that the blue car listed has the SuperSpring engine, I need one of those for my bed.

I think the time clock is off. By the way, was there a problem on the old setup? Regards David I used to be "advanced" now I am just an old "senior", sigh

My dear old Mum used to say, and here is the proof...................... http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/caterham/super_7/806408.html

Here ya go The "Killer B" http://www.pistonheads.com/doc.asp?c=103&i=7138 I would buy one just for those retina burning lights. Talk about candle power,lol. PS, notice those odd little cars behind it in the first and second pics????:yesnod: and this is good too: http://www.rsownersclub.co.uk/

Ted Nuget, LMFAO.:lol:

Try calling this place and ask for Tom, he should point you in the right direction. http://www.davebean.com/ What kind of service work are we talking about?

Hey you just described my wardrobe.

LOL, "Septic" haven't heard that for years,lol. Cockney rhyming slang, gotta love it. Septic = Septic Tank = Yank = US Citizen,lol. So I may get the old jamjar out and go down the frog n toad stop in a battlecruiser have a pint of Tex Ritter and a nice Ruby Murray and hope I don,t get stopped by the Sweeney. I always loved the one for wife.... "trouble and strife"; and "tea pots" = tea pot lids = kids =children There is a lot of that "RocknRolla", the latest Guy Ritchie film, actually in all his films come to think of it. I recall years ago in London being intoduced to a guy from overseas, I asked my cousin if his friend was from Italy, he say's "no mate, he's a bubble"....I was thinking it meant gay, and just let the conversation drop.It was some months later when it was explained.. Bubble = Bubble and Squeak = Greek = Citizen of Greece.

Thanks for the good news:confused: I do not doubt what you say is true.(as you said you enforce the law not write it) However, it really pisses me off that car enthusiasts that try to do everything by the books get hammered by the system while there are so many ppl out there driving cars without licenses or insurance or ....... well you know.:cuss:

Hank, God's speed, I hope it works out. BTW, from my own experiences I find the police are far nicer when the car is stationary....lol;)

Hank, Myself, the older I get, the more I like slot A into B, then change it later. If you had built your car as per stock would it have been a lot easier? are your [problems self inflicted you think? I did not study your whole build site but from what I saw, it seemed to me like a hell of a lot of work for you to correct many basic assembly faults that should have been corrected by the factory.; or at the very least helped you out a bit more. By the way, do you have a reverse gear, is that a problem if you do not and need to register the car; and finally ,what was it that drew you to the bike engined 7, I mean if the reg 7 is on the edge, bike engined 7's are jumping off the cliff.

I was looking at your site, I tell you what Hank, that car is a lot of work, hats off to you and all...but did you expect to have to do so much work and mods to get this far? Regards David

"Bog Browsing" ha ha, you have to be a Brit, I'm a Brummie. I slipped getting out of the shower a few days ago on old car mags that were scattered all over the bathroom floor. The perils and the passions of a male alone hey,lol.
