Re: Iconic Auctions

That’s the low estimate for the manta…
To be fair, that’s a real groupB cosworth engined weapon- it’s a serious piece of kit. Only 250 made or something ? I can see why it’s somebody’s bag.

Think of it like the hemi-charger of mantas…
Disproportionately expensive to ‘cooking’ models…

Re: Problems setting timing

Just to say ‘hang in there’.
I went through exactly the same learning curve(sic) - Pete’s post is the basics in a nutshell. Follow that and you’ll soon work out which bit isn’t aligning…

Timing drove me nuts - couldn’t work out why all these old clunkers seemed to run perfectly and mine fought me ...

Re: Harpenden 'Classics on the Common' 2026

I am gobsmacked by that. On what planet would that EVER be acceptable ????

I have had people open the doors before (but so far stop short of actually getting in) and I am usually pretty trusting (windows down) as I walk about.
I cant believe the cheek !

The Countach was just pur theatre. 50years old and SURROUNDED the whole time - its amazing what a draw it has, certainly one of the most ...

Re: Mancini stainless sender lock ring

SPoke with Matt last night - I think he is right. Because the sender presses against the rubber seal, it doesnt matter if this ring is 100% flat - just that it is TIGHT. It pushes against the sender. So long as it does it evenly-ish thats good enough.

Thanks team ! Let you know...
