so , after a rally with both , they needed a high pressure wash…. i won't show it because many of you find that "horror" :D
PS so far no flat tires anymore…. a inch more tire and less rim must make a difference !
Both run perfect , just the red one did loose sometimes his ignition, but think i found it in the ground wire engine-chassis. Chassis side was a bit corroded …. due mud and water i'm afraid :D

to have more working place in the garage i often had to roll a car outside , sometimes in bad weather…. pitty. So we build a carport ,6 x 13 m , connecting at the ( work) garage . Now all my cars can be parked in there … and stay dry :)
Still some ground work to do , some gravel and finished ! me happy.

we have a double garage in the front , for wifey's car and…. the Morgan.
I never put my daily inside , but now it's place is straight ahead under the carport :)
Will sure be good in summer, no more hot sun on the car …. and a oven inside ….

thanks Stephen, when it was "for sale" 10 years ago i not doubted… it's build in 1972 but with old materials…. by a famous architect here …
It has some "Bruges" accents … and a real !! mediaval fire place … we have renovated it completely and are now happy in it :)
Of course summer pics are more nice… this is today.

Time for some new pics next week …. at the "Marathon" rally BWC on Friday/Saterday. Winter season starts !
Have to do :
- new clutch master cilinder with bigger bore….so my pedal can be more backwards in rest , and needs less travel. ( more comfy drive )
- 2 new tires
- spare fuel pump install … up till now i relied on 1 electric pump.... perhaps a bit "risky"... ?

looking forward to drive again with the red devil ! :D

prep work done , clutch pedal has now "half" travel with a 1" master instead of a 0.7 " . So i don't have to raise my foot that high , pedal can be more vertical in rest ,... in line with the brake pedal. ...but of course firm push to engage…. will see after the rally what it gives.

weekend office :D

nice sunny weather, 600 km great roads, even rough gravel "off road" …. our red "devil" did it perfect , not even a flat …. and we ended P14 on the 62 historic cars !
One stupid navigation error Friday night costed us 7 penalty points.... a top 10 had "been" possible…. damned :)
