A buddy of mine has purchased a 78 Midget with a 1500 cc engine but doesn't want the drivetrain (Engine / Trans / rear axle). It's got 57,000 miles and ran fine a month ago. Anyone interested? You can contact Jim directly at kaw1kat at mchsi.com .

Bob Leonard, Great Ohio guy that races a red #48 Mini is having some health issues. Bob was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer in January. Has been a frequent guest of the Cleveland Clinic since then. Since Bob was layed off when the economy took a dump over a year ago it has made it tougher. Some of his friends are putting on a fund raiser dinner June 25th in Elyria Ohio to help out with the medical expenses. Vintage Race weekend at Mid-Ohio. If anybody on the list is in the Northern Ohio area and would like details on the dinner contact me at trmarty at hotmail.com . If you know Bob and want to give him a shout his email address is rl48mini at yahoo.com .

Message-ID: <1308148785.90727.YahooMailNeo@web110707.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> Wow, it's been a while but I'm finally getting back on track, and it feels good! One of the larger 'sub projects' that has been on my plate is finally finished! Affectionately known as the Angle-Canadian corner, this is a batch of information and research done by my Canadian friend Bill Fayers. Bill has dug up information on the 7X and 7Y and has had first hand conversations with the guys who built them, including Barry Flegg, Dave Walden and John Robinson (who happens to hold the record for fastest assembly of a Lotus Seven kit by the way). Additionally, Bill shares a few from his collection of Lotus Press Releases from the mid 1960's as well as a few other tidbits. Access the new content form the home page of SimpleSevens: http://www.simplesevens.org The Anglo Canadian Corner will remain a 'sub-site' under SimpleSevens and I will continue to post Bill's content as he provides it. So if you are interested, bookmark the sub-site as eventually the announcement on SimpleSevens will disappear (although I'll probably call otu significant updates to it in the future). Lots more to come as I continue to work out using updated software, hardware and time constraints! Cheers, John Donohoe SimpleSevens.org
