Wow! two years since my last post, how time flies when you're having fun.
This is my forth year of having the car on the road. Overall, car makers should be so lucky to have their cars so trouble free. Zero issues
The old GTS engine that I never expected to use still keeps going and going, while the one I rebuilt sits, still waiting to be used.
Today was a blat up the Sea-to-Sky highway to meet up with a group of mostly Caterham owners from the UK who shipped their cars to Calgary and have driven them here on their way to Victoria on Vancouver Island. The cars will then be shipped back to the UK.
Their outing was called the "Grizzly Bear Blat". One of the cars had a very close encounter with a bear which resulted in a fragmented nose cone, wrinkled hood and broken head lights. The bear sustained some damage but walked away. Repairs to the seven required copious use of duct tape. Red Green would be proud.
For the miata fans, nice example of a turbo. Signature is from Emerson Fittipaldi.
Loved the "butt extractor". The person has a broken rotator cuff and can't get out of the car. The winch hoists the seat bottom up so that he can get out easily. Quite clever.
And finally, a shot of my car after 4 years on the road at the ferry terminal in Horseshoe Bay. It's held up really well, still gets the crowds looking at it and waving and has more than paid back all the 3 years of head bashing it took to make it.
Oh, and it's probably time to move my log to the completed ones.
