    Greybeard--yeah i reckon an. has nailed them. I can remember my ole man having a pair similar.
    Interesting what you find cleaning out someone's estate. All good memories to have though, there's always a little link there somewhere to a story from the past.

    I've seen a few FIAT twin cam engines in spridgets, quite a good fit as it's quite a short engine for its capacity being fully siamese bores. It was a fairly common choice for Morris Minors when the engines were more common.

    @Alan Anstead , , , with a light on the top ?

    And, I've seen a photo of an Alfa 2.0l twin spark in a midget. Lovely engine!

    LOL. Annam. Crimson fish = red herrings. I had described a procedure for clutch checking (no eggs involved) that eliminated them.

    But I do like the smelly parrot joke.

    True story, once walking on a riverside path near Elterwater in Langdale, I commented to wifey that I could smell dead fish. 30 yards on was a bench so we sat for a while. As we stood up I noticed the engraved plate on...

    This takes me back.
    Dad had a Bedford Dormobile (fitted with a straight six from a Cresta) which had sliding doors.
    He lent it to me in 1977 when I got a short but lucrative job in the South of France and I drove there and back with the door clipped open.
    I lived in the van for eight weeks in the Marseilles summer while working 12 hour days, preying on the Continental hippie girls a...

    Lol Grey. The perch joke was mine.

    I was asking about Guy's 'crimson' fish.

  • Greybeard 18 June 2025

    ...PERCH...

    (Those poor kittens. Explaining a joke is like drowning a kitten they say).

  • anamnesis18 June 2025

    " -- imagine if you did that today the police would be almost as angry as if you said something mean on Facebook -- :) " 😅😅😅😅.

    So true. Lol.

    It was great. No seat belt on. Door wide open. We were so free back then man. 😉.

    Transits. Gem of a van. 😁.

    No sliders on car and classic. But £22000 will buy a nice mk1 with slam doors.

    Cant say I've seen anything like that but rather than serrated it looks to me like a thread so are they thread cleaners or something.
