That was quite a good ending though Arie.

Only wondering, as the morbid thought that this kind of sad announcement might become more common. We ain't getting younger. |

Definitely the weather's a factor Willy. But finally spring has arrived -- for the next few days at any rate. Lol. So yeah, I've got a few things to do on the Sprite. New hinge on quarterlight, new roof. Mine's a mk4 Sprite, with the fixed folding frame. I was going to modify a roof frame to make it fully removable like mk3's. Probably won't now. I must finally renovate my mk1 frontline suspension... |

Sold my Midget years ago when motorsport got way too expensive. The final nail was when they banned open cars at my favourite hillclimb. No sense of adventure- sitting on their comfortable chairs in their toofy offices raking in our money. No fun in them at all.

Ive actually lost nearly all my classic car mojo in recent years. I sold the Mk1 Midget I spent 4 years of my life restoring after only using it for 2 years and my Sprite race car is for sale. Im almost at the point where for the first time in 25 years I wont have a classic car. Ive still got a few classic motorcycles though.

Well I charged the new battery and today with the slightly raised temperature and a spot of sun it cranked quite well and fired immediately. |

Thanks for letting us know Dave, I didn't know him but read his technical discussions with interest although they often (usually) went over my head ! |

I figured once I got rid of my Capri (June last year) I could focus on my Sprite. Even perhaps buy another 60's 70's car to muck about with.
