Aren't you older than me? You certainly look it.

I really don't understand how anyone would advertise a car for sale and seemingly go to some effort with the engine bay cosmetics, but leave the exhaust manifolds rusty and pitted. It takes 15 minutes a side to get them off and a few days to have ceramic coated, making the engine bay look shmick rather than sh*t.

Yep, first thing you see!

those exhaust manifolds LOOK as if in recent times they have had a can of white VHT sprayed all over 'em ...old backyarders trick .

 

Yeah, Carl does it all the time

Deal with it

 

Thought so ..where is Carlo doing selfies or got the spade out -again?

And where is my Georgian SS desert spoon?

 

It’s wrapped up in a Logan beanie.

OLIO

 

Funkies? Or is he banned from there?

SHOCKING establishment .

 

I'm not sure how long it'll take for them to recover after the Covid decimation, if they ever do.

 

Carl,suggested we meet there before we went to BSM.....AS IF.

 

Any significance regarding the steering wheel centre emblem Rob?

 

"The unique turtle badge of the marque has a quaint story behind it. During the first photo shoot for the new Gordon-Keeble, a turtle walked into the frame of the shot. A slow turtle and a fast coupe would make for a delicious bit of badge irony, the owners thought."

 

I wonder if that was actually true

Wiki tells us a pet tortoise walked into the photo shot of the protype 1 and the emblem appeared there after .

 

works for me .

 

Thanks Klink.

Shell looks good too. [emoji41]

 

I doubt there are any Goron-Keebles in Australia ....I'll settle for a Bristol V8.

 

Too funny-just saying

I tell you what, that GK would slip through Targa scrutineering with 600bhp and an alloy block. Who TF knows the spec on a GK!

 

Well seeing as a turtle lives mostly in the ocean and only comes ashore to lay eggs I suspect a load of BS .... tortoise may have happened but the insignia has a turtle (flippers)

Sounds like they were reading about Nuvolari and his tortoise and extrapolated
