The engine bay on the red SEAC is superb. Who's that then ? Wish I could have made it. The missus flat refused to go all that way in the rain ..... We ended up going to Bakewell to feed the ducks..

That makes him West Yorks member No4. The 3 blue wedges all have a Bradford post code!

Be surprise if Karl doesnt make the bbwf - great car (and great chance to knock out a few door handles, bezels, side air vents etc). V8 out of side pipes? Wota superb wail! Infact, shadowfax and the 350s were right healthy sounding in all that other company. (Marcos with 5L cobra quadvalve notwithstanding ....but then again)

And Monker (chim) Wavey & Wendy (griff500) with Powelly (garaged griff500, passenger in chim) were great people to meet and drive in wee drop of M6 & A59 rain with. GOT to do more of that!

If I knew how to post pics or email reduced size ones, there's a few smiles. Never mind, we've always got bbwf

I gave Karl's Misses the hotel number and she said she was going to ring in the afternoon, so looks like another SEAC to add to the list of attendee's.

Great day some great looking cars, and it was good putting names to faces, and swapping wedge info.

Karl's SEAC stole the show for me, or was it the T350t or maybe it was the Tuscan S or the Orange Tuscan, Nah,red SEAC!

It may be worth checking thre low tension cable isn't broken anywhere. My old 350 stopped once, and the AA diagnosed it to be a potential ECU fault due tot he injectors not firing, turned out to be a simple broken wire!

As an ex wedge owner it was good to hear some wedgies on Sunday they definitly have a different note to the Chim.
