Still looking good Karl. You're a bad reminder of how slow my stuff is going. What's going on with the oil pan? Looks like you squared off the shallow end in the back.

Christ !

Half of those people in that picture look like they're just about to "turn" don't they? Especially the eraser head in the middle of the back row. The three dolts on either side of him don't have a clue.

The guy with the chick in his lap can't even focus his eyes he's so far gone; just about ready to turn and take a bite out of that hand on his shoulder.

I've been having great fun reading this thread. Keep up the good work!

Years ago, my Dad worked for Rootes Group.
And I hate to admit it, but for a brief moment in time, I owned a Plymouth Cricket.

I raced my pal Rocco in his Alpine HERE, last weekend (slide to about 11:40 to see the Alpine).
