Race Engine Forum UK

This is 1 of a set of pictures for which the previous keeper ( who took rather good care of the car ) shot when he was selling the car.

Thought: I don't claim to be the owner, as things pass from our grasp, I feel happy to enjoy, maintain, improve as I am flying down the road in this very quiet cruzer. Perhaps a bit Daoisticly Lao Tsu ish.

Will take another photo once I get the car back from the shoppe!
Sorry about the file size, will go for the 40KB next time.

Best Wishes in 07!

Nice! Incredibly rare now too.

Very nice car Paul. I would like to know what the difference is to the Zagato over ordinary models?

Andy.

Thanks Guy, and Andy:

I just got it out of the shop after the engine rebuild.
(Was driven before me a few times)
Cheked all gauge along the way, Got it out on the highway,
doing about 3500 RPM
going down a hill and then....

Cockpit was in smoke, oil pressure gauge showed near 0.

I quickly hit the clutch, killed the engine, parked it off of the highway.

Once stopped I called the towing company and the rebulder.

It is back in the shoppe and should be fixed tomorrow.

Did not hear any funnny engine noises.

Am a bit worried about possible oil starvation during breakin.

I think he will need to up his warranty on this car.

HOpefully 2morrow will be driving and not with smoke cloud!

thanks! Paul
