just got back from the footman james show at shepton, never that good in nov but a red fhc driving in cheered me up (see spotted) and as is usual not a lot of 7 heaven there, stall supposed to be tr, 2-6, another selling advertising poster things, triumph ones, you guessed it, 2 up to 6, but a few tr8 rally cars there, about 1/32nd scale but there.....

did manage to collect a drivers seat left there saturday for me, julian if you read these pages thank you, got a role of black carpet to start the transformation from blue check to black, and two wire brushes for my disc cutter to try to give my drill a rest, although they look a bit brutish[B)] and a little nervous using on car..... afraid half the car will dissappear....lol....

and seriously considering, purely down to lack of time at the moment what with lousy shifts in work and a lot going on at house, whether to bite the bullet and sorn the car and rent a garage for car over winter, always said i wouldn't but at 6 months tax at 120 quid and a garage here around a tenner a week....... well figures speak for themselves, just afraid out of sight would be out of mind.... failing that will be big frost cover outside house but within extension lead range to work on it....

This is the way to go.. IMHO, of course!
Shepperton? Do you know what the millionth Minor sold for?

Hi Maxwell it did not reach it's reserve of £25k and is going to be re-auctioned in February 2010, absolutly ridiculous price imho though [;)]

Did the low mileage white auto FHC sell? It was estimated at £4K I think!

I wasn't there either - I read about the Moggie on the Telegraph web-site.
