yea and with any luck JAM will grace a MCC meeting within the next few months. Now THAT will be a weird feeling.... 3 years restoring a car that I have only ever driven down the road and back!

All I need is motor rebuilt, box syncros at least, rad clean, brake and clutch master cylinders and a bit of bling........ :wink:

Synchros (new) are over $30 each now, and they are crap compared to the ones we used to get. Even the Rover ones.:cry:
