The postman's been a bit busy down my way this week , first off came this cheep ebay win of a bug pack shifter ,

 dont quite know what Im gonna do with it yet  Huh
Then along came these Avon 205 / 70's , yes i know the wheel detail's wrong , its on the to do list OK  Cheesy

And if that was'nt enough the best by far had to be these Spanish speaking bad boy's Cool thanks Matt  Wink

All I need now is their platform's for them to perform on  Smiley

and with luck these should be here very soon , so watch out EBI II fingers crossed  Cheesy

Not especially interesting I suppose, but I got these allen headed stainless bolts and washers for my wings - I'm going to be running a set of day mouldings wings and the bolt holes are nice and tigt so the small washers will fi perfectly. I paid £5.00 for enough bolts and washers to do 4 wings, my bonnet and a few more in case I lose a few.

One? Looks like you scored more than one. That's GREAT! I've always wanted Zotz, too. Haven't had those since the mid '70s. Say... that's a neat looking shifter, too.

Ahh... perhaps that's the reason they threw in the shifter with the Zotz. It must be made for a horseless carriage, yes? I think they traveled on the wrong side of the road, so it would make sense.

Did the horses come with four or five speeds back then? And it is your fault, Mark.

Four, do your homework. HAHA!! Whaddya mean MY fault? I sense blame in your sentence.

Back on topic; please post a pic of your alloys when they're repainted. The Spanish carbs look good, too.

Haha, very good, I like it.

Now if only it had some seats, paint, an engine, trans, suspension, preferably a method to steer it, somewhere for the fuel to go , some glass, some lights, a.......damn, and I thought all I had to do was undo a couple grub screws.

tom.

P.S. Zots are great! I often have one before I go for a run, i'm pretty sure there is no sugar hit like it!

P.P.S. Do they supply the lube for where you have to bolt it to the horse? I think I missed that part in the instructions...  Shocked
