Hi Phil, yeah, I'll be at your garage day again...I'll take that as an invitation to next year's since I've never been to yours before
Thanks for the offer of the wine tokens, but really, you don't have to. I wouldn't give it to someone if I thought they were just gonna sell it on and make money, but if it helps someone out then that'll do me! ...even if it's you, hahaha! And it's definitely a genuine spider one cos when I looked at it earlier it was still full of cobwebs and dead arachnids :-P
Was trying to think who my good lady might be, but no, there's only Leah, and she's just evil. Mostly...

Knew you couldn't resist the "wine for your good lady" comment !!!..... Lol....Leah has the sharpest tongue of all the women I have met !!..... Good luck !
going to watch the Welsh v Jocks now.
cheers
Phil
Sharp tongue? That's an understatement....when she yawns you can see a stamp on it that says "Wilkinson Sword"...dunno how she's not ripped her cheeks and gums to shreds!
I'll fetch that manifold down to yer Garage Day, and you can examine it minutely and whinge and moan about it and demand a discount. Well if you don't ask...
Delivered a couple of weeks ago... started to take off the bright works etc
ALL rubber is perished !
The USA Bumpers and shock absorber assemblies must come in at almost 40kgs !!... unbelievable !
However the shell is in very good nick... fortunately !
Bought an original hardtop which is still over near Dublin.... so if you go on holiday to Ireland don't forget to fit your roof rack !!
Cheers
Phil
A few of us are going to Ireland in April to do the Irish Lancia Club annual rally! (see FB). Trouble is we are all going in small Coupes....
Tim, just cut it up into suitably-sized chunks and share it out among the attendees. It'll be fine with a bit of duct tape.
Hope you are still coming down Norm.............. the 44 IDF's have arrived !!!
Update
Most of the outer lights and brightwork are off.
Called up to see Guy Croft last weekend to see about and "nice" engine.... had a good morning with him talking about options... looking for 160/170BHP
Wheels and tyres now ready any waiting... a bit early for tyres but DT were having a sale !!!!!
Bits and bobs off ebay are rolling in so I won't have to have so much waiting time as I have done on previous projects.
Engine is nearly out..... might be out tonight before bedtime !
131 gearbox has been found by GC... just waiting to get it
That's about it for now
Cheers
Phil
Ah, yeah, Phil, meant to tell you: about that manifold...ahem...
Ha, it's OK, it's on a shelf in the shed with your name on it. I even thought I'd save you some time so I covered it in a layer of crud to match the rest of the car. But that's what mates are for, innit?
