What sunny Sunday mornings are for 😎

While waiting for a diff, having a Road Westfield in garage already, decided to do something to avoid this ugly dust collecting in the rear of the car. And for more 'sporty' look

I wondered what had happened to the yogic flyers! As suspected they went bananas!

I bolted mine on with black plastic bolts. The theory being the bolts would shear off before damaging the nosecone if i hit anything.

Hi Dave, yes you're on my list! Currently there will be eight of us.

If that shirt hasn’t been washed yet, it could probably walk by itself wherever it needed to go. Seems to now be a bit heavy though, looks like you have to lean against a pillar and spread your legs just to be able to stand up.

Not just the shirt... Sorry big lad 😄

Hi all, what’s the scores on the doors for the 25th. Just want to make sure I’ve been included. Would be good to get an active group going. Well done Baz for starting this.

Little boy blue, come blow your horn. you can’t drive your Westfield, because it’s on sorn.😉😎

My wife asked me if I changed my name to Dexter...

The only kit car co that made an amphibian I think. The Dutton Surf

Good meet up here’s a pic of @Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO double checking his dodgy electrics. 😅

First proper run out today and the first time out in mine this year without calling the AA. 10 people in 5 Westfields and Barnsley John in the Jimny, and a pub that was actually open. Good to meet up with @Stuart Smith on his first meeting with us. A run up to the Motorist followed breakfast. We will be going to the Darrington Hotel again, but next month, somewhere different.

Almost correct, its 2 of them 🙈😎

One of these: Fits under the nose.

@TableLeg@Quinten You have to take some brave-pills before cutting away the slats! As you've mentioned in your DM, the slats come right up to the leading edge, all that has to be cut away so that there is no 'return' on the leading edge. I masked out where I wanted to cut to, and did it with a dremel with cutting discs, and hand files. The thickness of the nosecone GRP is now the return. The fibreglass is tinted black same as the gelcoat, so the raw edge is also black - I just filed, sanded and polished it to sort of match the gelcoat next to it. Black shows all imperfections like dogs balls, but a blind man would be rapt to see it - you should get away with it better than me if your cars are another colour. For lighter colours, I would be inclined to give the inside of the nose cone a shot-coat of black rattle-can to make it all dark and mysterious behind the grill when all done (hide the sins). The top edge was cut straight across, rather than follow the contour of the shallow shark-snout - this made mounting the grill easier. The grill is just bonded to the inside with black CT-1 adhesive sealant, with a couple of little bent alloy tabs to help it stay there. The crack in the gelcoat is from the original damage by the previous owner - not from cutting out the grill. It can't be seen til you lie on the ground with a camera flash and look up!

Previous owner of mine had driven too far in to his garage and cracked one of the slats in our V8 nosecone, so I cut out all the slats and added some plastic 'audi' mesh.

Four guys, with a total age of 296 years, having a gentle run around north Wales.

I've just found this lurking on my PC from 2008! Still may be of use to others! bmwm_nordschleife.pdf
