Just watching TOTP 1983 on BBC 4 now, meatloaf singing with a Honda VF750f in the stage on front of him, I have one of them in bits!!!

 

What meatloaf!!

 

I paid bugger all for it, knew all about problems. Just think it's a great looking bike. Stupidity bought it, but hey ho. I really fancy getting another and doing two out of one.

 

Got some really cheap NOS parts for it, so really want to find another one to make use of them!!!!

 

I was drinking Jack Daniel's Tennesee Honey tonight. Bloody lovely it was too.

 

Gel seats get very hot in the sun! Don't try to straddle bike with shorts on

 

I remember, when we were kids, my granddad had a Simca with red vinyl interior....
Us boys in shorts were hopping in the back like crazy when the weather got hot, squeaking like mangled cats

Simca:

 

Royston Vasey - the town with the Local shop, is in fact the real name of Roy Chubby Brown !

 

I have just test driven one of these -

Figaro, 1.0L Turbo engine, fold down semi-convertible roof - built by Nissan back in the 90's as a modern car that looked classic, and is now a classic !!!

And my Dad has only gone and bought it for my Mum !!!! Bit of a rolling restoration project for him to do.

 

There is no known accurate figure for how many bicycles there are in Beijing, that's a fact!

 

Micra floorpan, but they engine is a special jap only job, all alloy turbo thingy. Have trouble with overheating and cyl gasket rotting away. But believe this has recently been to UK specialist in England for turbo and steering rack work (a week point, supposedly). Looks a bit rough cosmetically, but you can get most parts for them, which is surprising for a grey import job. Once sorted tho', my mum will be buzzing around Dunoon in it !!! Can't wait to have a proper shot in it, was fun today around the industrial estate.

 

Daihatsu sold a similar looking model: The Copen

But the Nissan has more of the 50s flavour about it!

 

Lots!! There you go

 

When you lot delete your posts, I still get to have a look at them !!!!



Couple of dodgy one's, glad they were deleted before viewed by anyone
You know who you are

 

Creepy.! Maybe a name change is in order?
