Not very often you see a D11 going down the road!!!! Really puts its size into perspective against the cars!

Good set of snaps Stu, nice to see things are dry under foot and you still have that black thing on the jaw line ;) ;) anyhow have you bolted the toolbox in to the Tranny Van now??? as you seem to be somewhat settled in, oh and how come you farmed out the track repair job to the locals??

How do TC, yes still got the bum fluff and the toolbox is now bolted in - hopefully for a while. Have to let the yocals have the odd job now and then, plus as we havent got a yard twas easier to let them get on with it.

Back at the gal, new set of corner shoes on her:

SHould keep her going for a while:

S.R. some zillion years ago I am sure I went into Stokeys yard somewhere in Wolverhampton?? to collect some Kelly shanks, so it would seem that things are now based on " roadside " this must be handy to avoid the Council Tax?? but I would tend to think your Van is over-full with trappings, did you notice your camera has a plastic cup (with no bottom) stuck to it, giving an orbital glimse of the subject in your snap, anyhow its good to see you have bolted the box down finaly as they always get a dent in with every move.

Yuck. Had to put a track back on an old 11R the other night.

Still, can't complain. Sounded sweet. Last of the V8's!
