Default First drive out of the spring

I took the car over to Jacko's last week and then popped round to corner to the Transporter - bargain, it was closed for maintenance and the Bridge Master let me park the car up for some photos (and asked for a copy for the visitor's centre )

Cheers lads, the comments are much appreciated

and yes it did stay in the garage in the snow, but only because there was work getting done on it - this is it out in December when we went down to Motorscope

This is the car when I picked it up from being rewired (www.stocktonautocentre.com)

Younge took it round the block a couple of times to check everything so I took the chance to get it on camera

Yeah, it is superb - apparently they get a lot of groups of cars and bikes of an evening - had 120 Harley's turn up the other weekend apparently. I think I'll arrange for one of our local meetings over there. You can arrange to walk over the top of the bridge

Sounds like the owners/bridge master is pretty decent then. So many times I've parked up to take pictures and been told to move on

I really do appreciate the comments lads - makes all of the work worthwhile

Hopefully I'll see a few of you at Scotch Corner this Sunday or at other meets and shows through the year. Make sure and say hello

You definitely can't be shy when driving it

People stop and stare, point, flash their lights - you can usually lip read what people are saying and it usually is along the lines of f**king hell or look at that and I've actually seen people's jaws drop - but they are usually smiling

It's good fun
