Well after looking at my mini sitting in the garage in pieces, it is time to get motivated and get Henry back on the road!

The hiatus is now over, I am trolling the forums here looking at all the inspiration and just need to get the car going again. Got a brand new motor that hasnt been turned in anger(EVER) and has been sitting for nearly 2 1/2 years so I am going to go for broke and get it on and finished by the new year.

Really good to see the old faces again too - can't wait to reaquaint myself with you all again!

BTW now married to a wonderful woman and loving life!!

Hooroo and see you all on the flipside!!

The longer people like that have no mojo, the better.
