Finally got to pick the car up today and got it home on one of the only dry days we are going to have for a good few days lol Thanks to Toybox Cars Its a 2.0 Ford Pinto with dual 45 webers, hopefully in the new year I shall start playing around with the engine a bit more, maybe a nice new head and cam from Burton power and then see what kind of power I can get from it. But for now will enjoy it as is well when we get some decent weather haha

Combined DRL/indicator units for nose cone indicator pods conversion.

Well, the forecast is not exactly dry and there is little interest so sadly I will be cancelling this event. The next event will be on Saturday 27th December, meeting at the car museum, Ambergate, DE56 2HE at 10am. It is the Twixmas Car Meet, entrance is £5 per car, members of the museum go free. We won't stay all day, just long enough to have a trot around the other cars on display before going for our own trot around the Peak District. I will start another and separate event for this though, nearer the time. While I have your attention may I just also mention our usual New Years Day meet? mmm, a tricky one, I am working 6am-10am so if the weather is good and we do decide to meet, it will be a touch later than normal. That probably suits you as you can at least have a lie in and recover from the previous nights activities. Stay posted and hopefully we will get together at some point over the Christmas holidays.

Great looking car! Good to see another Pinto engined car around.

Nice looking car. From a fellow Pinto on 45s although yours looks a lot shinier than mine,

Do you get a car with the front grille

New 9 inch puller fan plus brackets and controller from Revotec to go onto the XI's radiator. Should work more efficiently than the awful bracket that the kit comes with that blocks 30% of the surface area. Brackets not fully fitted at this point - just positioned it all on the rad for photo attention.

Ready for a bit of a rewire in the new year. (no idea why it’s upside down).

Thanks @Mathew Vernon - Membership Secretary!! I now owe you a photo or two with them in the car!

Aargh (Chinese) MG what have you done😮 Margaret added for scale, some of you know how tall/small she is😀
