Hi James, If you were getting a decent G50 (and were not going to race the car), I would have suggested that you didn't bother with the sprayer - just flip the box, swap the drain & breather plugs, & use about 5 litres of oil. BUT, as the box sounds like it will need to be stripped down...

Andy, you have piqued my interest in the removable door tops - I'd love to see those promised pics ! Kind Regards, Peter D.

I am guessing that the 930 is similar to my G50 in terms of installing the clutch fork. For reasons that we won't go into, I have had the "opportunity" to R&R the gearbox a few times & I have found that the rubber band method is brilliant. I just make up 4 sets of 2 x medium rubber bands...

A man owned a small farm in Ireland . The Inland Revenue claimed he was not paying proper wages to his staff and sent a representative out to interview him. 'I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them,' demanded the rep. 'Well,' replied the farmer, 'there's my farm hand...

Jonny, I have just about the same setup that you are proposing, but I think my AFR's are 165cc. Could not be happier - it ticks over like a sewing machine at idle, but scares me when I put the boot in ! Whilst I have not had mine on the dyno, other guys with the same setup are getting up...

If I write something nasty about another person on a piece of paper & mail copies out to other people, there could be a problem between myself & the target of my nastiness. BUT, how on earth could the manufacturer of the paper / ink / photocopier, or the postal service be held liable in any...

Howard, I can't help with the guts of the clutch itself, but I have had more experience than I wanted with the release fork & g/box r&r ! As Chris says, once the locking tab has been removed, the fork shaft "should" just slide out - mine didn't. I ended up cutting a couple of short lengths...

Beautiful car !! The whole issue of manufacturers "protecting" their old designs against replicas seems quite bizarre to me - I would have thought that replicas were "free advertising" for the marque in general. Most guys walking around with $500,000 to spend are not going to buy a replica...

As a kid, I was lucky enough to be at the Farnborough Air Show back in about 1963 & remember seeing the Vulcan fly with a prototype of the Concord engine mounted under the fuse. From what I can remember, they took off under normal power, got things set, then fired up the Concord engine. I can...

A man and a woman were sitting beside each other in the first class section of an airplane. The woman sneezed, took out a tissue, gently wiped her nose,then visibly shuddered for ten to fifteen seconds. The man went back to his reading. A few minutes later, the woman sneezed again, took...

Ross & Cheryl, I was so sad to hear the news & really feel for you both. As Russ said, chronic depression is a clinical condition, not a result of any parenting issues (I also know this from direct family experience) - there obviously was nothing further that you could have done...

Jim, as far as I know, he still has the car. Kind Regards, Peter D.

Mark, here is my setup for EFI - basically the same as Jim C's, but with a changeover valve to allow use of either tank as required. Kind Regards, Peter D.

Chris, there's the picture, but where are the thousand words ?? (Even a dozen or so would be ok, providing they tell us what is going on in the "skunkworks") !! Kind Regards, Peter D.

An older, white haired man walked into a jewellery store one Friday evening with a beautiful young gal at his side. He told the jeweller he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend. The jeweller looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000...

HOW TO CALL THE POLICE HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE. George Phillips of Gold Coast, Australia was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window...

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book. Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the...

Love It !!

Jim, congratulations !! It has been a long time coming, but when I saw your expression after that drive in Steve Shedden's car, I knew the ultimate outcome was inevitable ! It looks like you have acquired an outstanding RF & I know that you are in for some serious fun !! Kind Regards...

A skinny little white guy goes into an elevator, looks up and sees > this HUGE black guy standing next to him. The big guy sees the little guy staring at him, looks down, and > says: "7' feet tall, 350 pounds, 20 inch private, 3 pound > testicles, Turner Brown". The white man faints and falls to...
