Hey! Easy on Lucas! The right headlight always worked fine on my 65TR4A after I punched the fender!

where are the british cars? problems with the electrics? ;)[/quote]
Ha Ha, to my knowledge non of my cars have Lucas components, which, of course, Peter's mini has!!1
I have been in London for a wedding and have just got back, but I will be sending my cars by courier as usual, so they will arrive a day or 2 before the event, earlier if I can manage it!
After Marc's great work on my cars I do not have too much to do to make them presentable, but I want to tidy up the Escort, which I had dropped and broken the roof on just before I sent them to Marc, and I have cracked the Volvo a little through my own clumsiness. I wont try to make them perfect because, at the speeds reached on 'the Desmo', and the fact that saloons/sedans tend to be top heavy, they are all likely to be rolled into the scenery many times!
Message to Peter, drive em like you stole em! That's what they are there for. There are plenty of spare bodyshells where they come from, so don't be worried about any damage, I'm not!
Off to the shed to get on with them now!
Regards, Lloyd
