Dear Friends,

Well, it's that time of the year where I look back and Thank You ALL for your support, humour and kninnesses in helping me keep my Spirits Up while working on BlackBeauty©.

Special thanks go out to CerbWill, DuncanM, TwinKam (again), Gladers01, Byker28i, ridds, notaping, pmessling, savroo, hiccy18, Tuscan_Tim (in the north of Luxembourg), DCerebrate, phillpot, Macbags, ukkid35, gruffalo, Harry Overton of Briteworx, Darren of Radtek , Nick Claydon of CC Aqua Blasting , and last but by every mean the best, Joo of KITS AND CLASSICS

The amount of work completed looks incredibly small when I look at it laid out, however, I use the excuse that most of my time, this year, has been diverted to another Cerbera/ TVR / motoring subject in that I have been writing Al Melling's autobography with him.

Hoping to complete the text early in the new year. Will then have to investigate the business of Publishing yikes
Anyone got an idea of any direction I should (not) take ?

OiFilter, Air Con and associatedPipes


Obtaining and Cleaning 4.2 Fuel Rail and Airboxes


and, the biggest MoFu of the year was undoing the PAS Pump Pipes (not shown).

Hopefully 2023 will be heading in the direction of re-assembly....



Sending you ALL the very best wishes of the season together with wishes for a Healthy and Happy New Year.

All the Best,

PJ

Cheers Paul.

Let's hope it's all plane sailing from here on and you're up and running next season. Mine was off the road again for 18 months while I rebuilt the engine, and upgraded to a 4.5. You can't keep the smile off your face when you get it back on the road :-)

Really looking forward to reading the biography. You're a man of many talents. Keep up the good work.

Merry Xmas.

One of my faves on here, your humour always shines through, and without humour, who would own and work on such a car smile

The only thing I've done to help this year, Paul, is be the one who's done less to his Cerb than you, thus giving you sneering rights!
Have a good one and let 2023 be The Year of the Cerbera!

Thanks Paul, and have a great one yourself. Your dogged persistence with the rebuild is amazing, and we look forward to seeing the results. I am famously unskilled with anything mechanical (once asking on this forum about the clutch cable on the cerb!) and I appreciate everyone’s kind advice over the years. You are very much a part of that community. Christmas 🎄😀 🎄 (emoji for the Scots saying: keep it atween the hedges!).

Merry Christmas everyone, and as above, thank you so much for the amazing sharing of work and help on here. It's not an exaggeration to say that my car would not be running right now without this amazing forum smile
