    Great color and much better looking than the Spider-version.

    ...where he had stored his LM. He called me at midnight and asked me to find it the next day.

    I found it......

    The rear wheel isnt central in the rear wheel arch? (too far forward) Has this LM been in an accident?

    Could be a result of the angle of the picture, could be a result of handbuilt cars never being exactly perfect. Could eb a result of both. I still think it looks incredible.

    It was incredible - but not easy to drive. The gearbox was easy to use only at high speeds and the seating position....! pff.......

    Some mundane shots of the 1754 Kilometre drive......and tow......,back to Atherton.
    I am having the same trouble,but MUCH worse,as Stuart is with his Queen.

    I was battling this thing for about 1300 klm's of the trip.
    It gradually got worse,until,about 20 klm's from base it didn't want to play any more.
    This,mind you,was now 1030...PM,in far north Queensland.

    So what does a bloke do,well since I had our son with me,I phoned my ex and asked if she would call the nextdoor neighbour,to come out with his 4wd,and tow us back.....he did.
    It's a bit like that in the country.

    Now we've gotta find out what's wrong with the b#$*h

    1st shot is filling the 2 cars at Wammuran.
    next,Back of the pub in Roma.
    Last,ensconced in the shed in Atherton.....sulking!

    Nasty, my Daytona is currently undergoing a winter overhaul, hopefully my mechanic won't find anything like that.

    Most of it is solder,FNWF!,some rustish type particles.
    I'm going to drop the tank and clean it properly.
    3 exhaust rubbers broke on the trip as well,so that will not be such a wasted job,as you have to move the exhaust to drop the tank.
