Why do you assume that the older enthusiasts are "anoraks and
trainspotters"? Didn't actualy say that!
I wrote that just after going to the Newbury area meet, where I was struck
by the outward going nature of the organisers and everyone there.
It apperes that my view about modification is the same as yours, if your
going to modify a car, modify one that wasn't exactly orriginal in the first
place. But it's completly wrong to modify a 100% original car, why not swap
it for a less original car which would give you a better start. My spitfire
is hardly original, it has a Doly 1500 engin for example. Plus a horible
respray which was a compltet bodge, the DPO.

>White Hart at Fyfield on the third Monday? We don't bite,
Provided I don't set fire to the car this weekend with my welding attempts.
(Just got an extinguisher today). And I manage to fit my rebushed
carbuetters, I'll be there next monday. Maybe half a sleep but!
