So what have you done with your Aston today?

[paddy328]

Here's what I've been working on last week for a few days at Mcgurks. Thought you guys might like to see it.

Is that the barn find they had? I wish I had a barn like that!!

As far as I know it wasn't. Been in the same family for decades. I thing the barn find they were looking at was a db4

Had my Sunday drive interrupted by a fellow in a black and white ford. Was doing 65 in a 55 but he only got me for a missing front plate and dark tinted windows.

Was that the before or after photo ?

Spent 2 and a half hours under a high cloud sky (perfect) bringing Vesuvius back to a pristine shine after her gallops around Cadwell Park on the 30th, it feels so good.

I washed and polished it, then put the cover back on. Only 5 more weeks to go then I can drive again

Just dropped of my baby off to Aston Cambridge for a new clutch. Looking forward to getting it back already.

Decided to be brave and drove it to the station today. Managed to find a spot with lots of space to either side.

Looking forward to the drive home this evening!

Took the car out for a spin forgetting how little petrol was left in the tank, 4 miles to the nearest petrol station. When I started the car in the garage it had 35 miles left in the tank, turned the car around to go down the drive 25 miles left in tank 1 mile down the road 15 miles left, then no miles left. So switched to instant mpg and manage to get 35 mpg. Got to the petrol station £90 later hit the loud button and got mpg down to 0mpg. Note to self leave car with more petrol.

Updated sat nav to full post code search that should make the sat nav more usable.

It would be getting driven in weather like this. But the doctor won't let me drive after the op on my collar bone. So now I have to walk to the pub

Removed the parcel shelf from my V8V. Blimey I couldn't believe the difference to the exhaust sound , someone needs to make an acoustically permeable parcel shelf so I can hear that lovely sound but still keep my flat cap and whippet out of sight.

'tis the season for barn finds.

The Bonhams Auction is only 4 weeks away.

changed the battery!
surprisingly easy, around an hour in total including interruptions from the Overseer.

Took my car to McGurks, saw Paddy's work in the metal. It's a very nice car superbly presented

[Big Ry]

Managed to get two 15kg Butane gas bottles in the boot of the SP workhorse, much to the wonder of the woman at the garden centre.

God job I didn't stack it, the trusty GAP insurance wouldn't have been much use then

Manged to drive 200 miles to find the only rain shower in the country that dumped half of the Sahara desert on my car.
