I have been using some weekend time to mock up some tubular manifolds for the MV6.  They need some more refinements here and there, and I've got to figure out a new starter motor that doesn't have the solenoid in the way, but I'm pretty pleased with it so far.

I had one of them once, it too was 1990.

Went like the clappers in its day, but the economy was woeful - about the same as my MV6

That was the only bit of my working day I enjoyed the drive to & from work , now I am "social distancing" with no intentions of returning with the present situation I  will have to have drive to some nice dog walking areas.

That old chestnut ;D

Chap I work with had to collect his 14 year old daughter from school yesterday... She and some of her friends have worked out that if they cough loudly periodically, that they will get sent home... For two weeks  :o in order to 'self isolate'...  To say he was unimpressed was an understatement  :D
