Historic Sport Sedans

[John McKechnie]

Barry swung round today, he heat treated the newly cast radiator tanks.
Found an empty 44 gallon tank, put it next to the stove, filled it with water.
Heated the tanks to 150 degrees in the stove for 4 hours.
Then used short forceps and quickly dropped straight in the waterI.
There is only a 2 second lag from oven to water- no time to worry about charrred finger tips.
got an email from Graeme, and he is so pleased that Barrys tyres are here and the radiator is well under control-

*Heard it all before….., watched one motor mouth, panicking to get in and going, pull his helmet on backwards..thought “that’s one way to stop the verbal noise”.

The only reason Barry would look in his mirror, is he’s just had his boot wrinkled, a love tap, a reminder from you know who that there is something quicker behind. Actually, a mirror in Barry’s car is excess weight because most of the time it would be empty.*

That would have to be one of life's truly embarrassing moments, bat at least he couldn't be accused of letting the red mist distort his judgement.

Well I guess that not having a mirror is one less thing to worry about and following drivers will politely let you know when they are trying to pass.
