Well, it's working again and sounding as noisy as ever

David Wallis has got his car running again, which is excellent news. Hopefully, assuming all goes well, it should be running quite well for scoobyshootout. It won't have many miles on still, but at least it'll be running even if it ain't quite the best it could be.

"Now is not the time for soundbites, but I feel the hand of history on my shoulder"... I was there when it ran again... it's a beautiful sight... clouds of stuff burning off the exhaust...

But it's running.

Well done mate

Cheers,
Nick.

yeah, and whilst we are here I'd like to thank Nick for ringing up and finding somewhere that sold the hose I needed, then braving rush hour traffic to take me to get it and putting up with my poor sense of humour

Might as well thank the rest as well.. Steven , Mark and Pat

Oh and anyone else ringing me / emailing me to hurry up.

And cheers David, Ill call you tomorrow lunchtime

David
