For Sick Wedges...

Took the wedge for its 1500 mile oil change and to sort out some minor gremlins on Saturday.

Have a few nice pix of A40 SE, another inmate, in for some oil pump / pressure work.
Will post when I get a chance.

Top Marks to Peninsula for yet another top job

The legend is that you camp over while they service your car. Is it true ?

Sorry Mate ... Wrong ... Swifter than the Macca F1 Team, or the LM pit crew, Peninsula always manage to turn the job around the same day.
Basically though, I just turn up, and tell them I want the car to go home with. If you cannot do it Mr Smith, Can I please Borrow that nice <Tuscan, Tamora, Cerbie> to get me home. At the prospect of me behind the wheel of a car that isnt mine... they usually submit to my request :hehe

Twins, and yours goes topless

I like the lights conversion, when I get another wedge I must get that done, who did yours?

Peninsula did mine. finished off with a acarbon face plate.
side / main beam on inside, dipped on outside.
also has dim-dipped included when on side lights just enough to illuminate the outside bulbs.
Main beam is outside lamps and bottom spots, Flash is everything!.

If you were 6ft 3 with a rather large beer gut it wouldn't just be the cars

Thanks for the photos.. withdrawal is almost too much - may have to go down during visiting hours pending the final operations
