School boy error.

Had the exhaust off the Tamora over the winter and had my 1st run out in it down to Donington yesterday. When I'd parked up at the circuit I got out of the car went round to the boot and noticed the number plate had a white line running nearly the the length of it ,I though what the hell is that? I touched it and it was very hot.... I then realised when I put the heat shield on that the number plate is attached to I'd pushed it right on to the rear exhaust can and didn't leave a gap so the heat had transferred directly on to the shield hence the melt down white line the numbers as still legible though so I can drive down to Duxford..bugger 👎😡😊

The car is looking more like a rat rod every day! Thank god it's getting re-sprayed and re- trimmed in the winter.

Walked past your car today at Duxford Buzz, if the red one was yours. So that was four I counted. Most I think I've seen at a show.

Hi Mr M

Yes it was: the old rat rod... But the 4.3 makes up for its condition I think you were parked in front of Geoff Ashcrofts Tamora looking at your profile photo. It was a cracking day. Wasn't that interested in the cars to be honest... It's the 1st time I've been to Duxford in 15 years .... The American Museum was brilliant ...

Ah, I was over by the runway Buzz, so that wasn't me but I did have a good look at those and the yellow one. Don't often see other Tamoras. Would have like to have heard your 4.3. Another time no doubt :-)

Yes, the American section was eye opening as usual. Size of that B52 !!.
