Harley thanks for the comment too, i take it you may have been there on the weekend,

Jan you car has got some more great feedback, my mate in UK asked If we meet you and seeen your car, he is so green eyed right now, im telling you mate you have a fan club over there,

as for my dream cars, what i have is a good start I bought my Rovers, but additons would be as follows

BMC Works car

Paul Smith LE

Genuine Pick up,

and thats all really

think what we have will have to do till funds permit,

Monaro

Aaaalrighty, then...

We're gonna need a fat chequebook, boys and girls!

-Start with a Rover shell. (Half the work done with removing rust and door hinges) Make it Pale blue with one white stripe across bonnet, white roof of course! 1 '16V' badge on bootlid.

-Full house 1440 KAD Twin Cam, with SC/CR dog box, and quad throttle bodies and MoTeC ignition system.

-KAD 4 pots up front, with their 1.2 Kg (!) rear disc brake setup.

-Rear subframe removed, Tubular independant rear trailing arms with Spax coil-overs (Front and rear, no rubber cones).

F1- style carbon pedal box, with integrated dual master cylinders, hydraulic hadbrake standatory.

Recaro fixed-back leather buckets (why not), in Tan to be different. Black piping.

-Stereo woul consist of Alpine head unit, 2x Eclipse amps, Focal 'Utopia' front 3-ways, 5 1/4" rear fill, 2x Focal 11" subs, all in moulded fibreglass enclousures, Blue to match the exterior.

-Standard Mk2 'S' wheelarches, with deep dish Bon Speed 13x6 fronts... now it gets interesting. Tub the Rear wheel-wells, leaving room for the 13x9 rear wheels, but still using the same flares as the front. (never seen that before)

-Full titanium exhaust, with one resi and one polished cannon, at 45degrees under the rear, and finishing off in the standard 'straight' rear exit. 2 1/2" polished tip (I polish titanium wedding rings at work an it comes up like a mirror)

And that should keep me happy for at least another year or two. Yay!

You have fun with that idea at work.

MMMMMMMM.... I want those back gards.....

I would have a few.

1 restored roundie for shows. Prob a Cooper/Cooper S, just so i can say i have one!
1 very quick brick (prob 1275 LS). this one would have a very sweet interior too!
1 pickup for practicality
1 roundie, for day-to day usage with room for passengers

all would be very reliable, in very excellent condition. all of them (except the restorer) would have "fully sick" sound systems.

The quick brick would have leather seats front and back

absolutely agree,
and I want one of those packets of tim tams that never run out too...... mmmmm...... tim tams

I'll go with mine...finished. '63, 850, sliding windows, mods done - deseamed, cobra low back buckets (on layby), cage, suzi gti conversion, aftermarket ECU. To come - subtle interior, boot mounted radiator, NOS, 130-140HP n/a gti motor. If it ran 13's on slicks I would be a happy man.

Next would be a ute. Prolly with a rear/mid mounted turbo MR2 motor. Pimped interior.
