Check the "Tales from the track" chapters in the Motors, 4 Wheels bit of the site too.
I'm gonna keep plugging away at him to bring the Pig along to the Basingstoke Festival of Transport in May. Otherwise you'll have to wait & see him in action on the track in the Spring.

   and that last picture was Easter , Santa Pod , 80 something,(embarrasingly I'd have to go and look up  the exact date) , Mick Hillier bought the roller after that , rebuilt it, and with the Plymouth body fitted, ran it as Pony Express for some years until he had a new chassis built and sold it on to a mate of mine who in turn stored it for some more years and from whom we blagged it. We fitted a dog of a 327 and spent a year blowing it up, breaking heads and cooking transmissions, spending lots, learning a little and making some great new friends. A winter trip to Bakersfield saw a bit of shopping and we brought in a complete rotating assembly to up it to 383 and the following year a pair of AFR heads, custom cam and rocker gear along with a new converter which is pretty much where we are now, just need to curb the drivers idiototic tendancies and keep the valves in it to have a fun and consistant car.
