All I can say is that it's very complex.
And very very clever.

Mike: If you do get to meet Ken you'll certainly enjoy his company. We met him on our last trip to the US of A, and he went out of his way to show us around to places we would never have found on our...

What you said.

That's RJ and (then wife,) Vanessa. Nice people. We've known them better than thirty years, I may have been told his name at some stage, but all I know him as is RJ.
That car was his brother's, he...

"It's been a long, long journey for sure."

Yep.
Just looked back to when you started this thread: November 2014.
But I think you can say that the end result was worth the toil and frustrations....

Good one mate, it looks bloody gorgeous, I'm not surprised it's a head-turner!

I'd wager you're as happy as a dog with two tails...

:LOL: :LOL:

Crikey, that's something I'd like to be there to see.

There's aroha coming your way from New Zealand too.
I hear you on the restrictions and 'wasted' time too. I know I'd be driven nuts with enforced idleness, I've got to be doing something! Anything!...

And then 'just happening' to have the lathe gears to cut a...

Crikey!
I'm impressed!
That's very ingenious; and there's obviously been a tremendous amount of head-scratching and whatifs went in to it.
Top marks that man!

Sorry to hear of your and your family's loss.
Our thoughts and condolences are with you.

A wise move.
A broken driveshaft is not a pretty sight.
I had an old unroadworthy A5 Bedford truck that I used solely on the farm. I sold it to Tom Reddin, a good mate from three roads over. He...

Mr Hotrod46 Sir,
I've been following this thread for about four years now; and have been in awe of the way you have found answers to the trials and tribulations you have faced.
There has (as I have...

That is very simple and very clever; it epitomises hot-rodding/vehicle modification at its best.

You surely dribbled a bib-full there!

That is extremely quotable and worth remembering!

Don't wish to digress from the theme of your thread; but couldn't let that remark go by without commenting on it:
A good friend of mine has a Sunbeam Tiger, I've been in it several times, but Ian...
