Thanks Skruntie!! :y :y :y

The V12 Merlin is absolutely great, but I would want it in a sleeker body than that bulky Chevy.  ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;)

Now that silver car is the business!! :y :y :y :y

If I dont want to grow up, and act like Burt Reynolds in Smokey and the bandit.  Then surely thats my choice. ;D ;D

and lets face it, you once said if Noddy's car ever came up for sale then you would be the first to bid on it.  [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif] [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif] ;D ;D

Are you putting a V6 in it as well.

It's been there for 4 years, sort of worked when I got it, daughter used to sit in it and switch the lights on a pretend when she was younger. I do have a new 12v Motor for it, think it currently runs on a truck wiper motor.  Like all projects she will be / is too big for it by the time it gets on the road. :-[

I agree Daz, annother of mine is an early 70's 454 T-Top Corvette Stingray.


If I did ever win the lottery and go to the states to buy a yank car I dont think I would ever come back.  I would be in my element.

When i lived there my best bud had a 383 Plymouth Roadrunner very much like the Dodge Charger ...We used to swap occasionally for the weekend if he had a date, my Ford Torino was better for transporting his conquests in (I was married then) Kinell used to scare the shit out of myself driving the RR it was 4 speed too not auto really did shift, speed cops were very few so no probs back then 140mph  on the Tollroad (mways) especially at night as there mways are often dead straight for miles so you see any cars coming or following easy ::) ::)
