I wonder how many are in the States? Ed

When I had mine built if you wanted an honest 250hp it was the way to go.... I have the alloy bock and it saves in the range of 20 kg. If you have no emissions testing it is just another engine. Parts have not been a problem. A bit of cross referencing and two day from QED takes care of that. I'm happy with mine, love the torque and power delivery but if I was starting new would go with Duratec. Ed

I saw this ad and thought this might be of interest.... http://bringatrailer.com/2010/07/10/cones-or-cruises-1979-caterham-seven/ Ed

I'm sure you can.....

While I plan on having a seven until I'm unable to get in and out (perhaps next week) this does look nice. No knowledge of the car or owner other than the ad... http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-cars-sale/541568-beck-550-spyder-1955-factory-replica-porsche-550-a.html Ed

I have ordered tickets and in an act of excessive optimism a parking pass. If I can get the car back together the plan is to show up the 12th and then after the weekend drive north to Seattle. I plan on showing up for the weekend even if the car does not. It will be good to see you guys again. Ed

Chip at GT Classics in VA had parts and was doing rebuilds. Would be worth checking with him.... 1-877-RACE-007 (1-877-722-3007). Ed

Jackson, WY Off the back of http://www.jacksonholewinecompany.com/ is http://koshuwinebar.com/ Not inexpensive but as of a year ago very good and buying wine in the front and carrying it to the back saves a bit. It is a very short walk back to your room. Have fun. Ed

I just received this from John. I'm saving for his V8 but his new engine looks nice (nice is an understatement) . You have to love an engine you can pick up. Hello all, A new product announcement! The new engine is called the H2 BUSA. No, it's not a V8, but performance will be spectacular. Preliminary information is on the entry page of the website. Go to www.H1V8.com Best regards, John

CJ, Glad to see you made it over from Pelican. Good luck on your hunt. Ed
