Moved it at last!!

Finally moved my spit to its new home. Required the loan of a very spiffy low loader, my mate and his discovery, and 6 hours to transport said car and all its trappings (welder, tools, compressor etc)

Now have a nice big building to play in with free electricity (the farm pays for it) and I can make as much noise as I like!

My mate (we are friends again) over the road with the midget wants me to take it out for a drive, hmmm. Its T reg, in excellent nick, and cost him &163;800 from some bloke moving abroad...I think I might hate him again now

Phil.

  Space. How I envy you. Trying to get my'Tess on the road (I only intended to change the clutch but a catalog of errors and some lazyness and she still isn't running a year on) in a damp lock up with about a foot and half space around it. No electricity, air or water. A nightmare as I am sure you all know.
  
  I too have a friend with a squidge it (chrome bumper so I can't fault his taste in that respect). His previous car was a B which he wrote off so one less on the road.
  
  Having said that having been bought up in an vintage MG houshold (my first alphabet went ABCDEFMG!) I feel a little hypocritical. Austins rather than Triumph were the traditional subject of banter and rivalry (unless they had Healey 3000 attached). But when I was looking for a sports car it was the looks and six pots that took my fancy. And I'm glad of it too.
