Drab Olive driven by a large hairy man in Hi Viz vest who (to his credit) refused to answer his Mobile when called! :?

Is your name "Private Number?" I knew you worked in defence but I didn't know you were still a Private.

I saw a few Gear cars in town today.
I am too frightened to visit Elwin. I am frightened that I might breathe on something the wrong way and destroy perfection.

I don't take my personal phone to work. It is a distraction that I try not to encourage. I have to set a good example for the troops seeing I have moved up in the ranks.

Visit Elwin you fool!! :idea: :!: :wink: :roll: :lol:

Incommunicado at work is fine, but when you are floating along on fluid towards the main street you can pull over to the nearside and take a call :idea: :!: :arrow:

I have the office phone on me all the time, if I took my own phone as well I would never get anywhere!

I need to visit Elwin and see if he wants to do some chassis work for me. Would he stoop to repairing a Formula Vee chassis?

OK

Elwin is busy...but is an enthusiast...and for someone so local and with time for the job...Yep...I'm sure he could help with the MJM :D

PS check out his FF...just magic!!

Last time I was up there he had a F5000 (actually a Formula A) car, it was an American tube frame chassis, it might have been a McKee or something like that. The MJM chassis is heavy duty by comparison.

Elwin's Formula Ford chassis were always a neat, pretty chassis. I would feel dirty taking something rough like the MJM to him. :lol:

If you aren't in a hurry (at all) you could bring it to sydney to see Ivan.

He builds and races Cooper Climax's and Bristols.

Now that has to be the coolest car i've ever sat in.
