Just as beautiful on the inside as well. 2.9 l straight eight with twin superchargers. 190 HP @ 5200rpm. A lightweight 2200 lbs/1000 kg in luxury coupe form. 190hp/ton made the road version the ultimate weapon of choice on Europe's roads.

Same chassis and motor aka a racing machine but clothed to perfection in a voluptuous form fitting black dress. Yes, it's ultra rare and more than $20 million worth. These are the hand built supercar of the time, and for road touring at race like speeds, were the world's fastest road car. A Le mans winner in a tasty suit. Only a handful were made in Lungo or spider of this exact version but many variations were available in the late 30's.

Forget your wee willy woodies and movie stars. The car is the star. It is industrial Art in a symphony of form and function that is greater than the sum of its parts. It never gets old but is timeless as a masterpiece. I present a rare Alfa 8C 2900. Winner 1938 Mille Miglia.

For once I agree, That's a shit decision but has nothing really to do with wokeness. More pandering to a community religious grouping, which should never happen. We should either rename to a traditional indigenous place name/ person or to honour a Australian that beyond reproach ie not a politician or mate.

Could be a big scam. However in the future, lots of deals like this will become available. Perfect for converting old cars or even better making big boats electric or hybrid.

Yes, Valentino Rossi was still yet to win a GP back then. It was to get to the Grand prix overnight as the suicidal Ducati had died mid corner and left me stranded. So I returned to Sydney and took the Fairmont with V8. The GP ended as a washout that year, real happy to camp with a car on the end.

Roma, the perfect Italian tomatoes. Perfection for cooking and lots of flavour. Not so much for burgers or sandwiches.

Well done Spenaroo. Nice fast restoration. The availability of lots of cheap jetskis makes jet boats easy. If you want more speed just add a bigger bucket of jet ski motor. 250hp anyone?

True, But on a hot 🔥 day the bitumen is 50 C or more and riding is like sitting Infront of a giant heat gun. Add heavy traffic in the concrete jungle and it's bloody hot and sucking hot exhaust fumes. Add proper riding gear and it's easy to cook yourself. Big jap fours also tend to pump the heat onto the rider behind the fairing. Rider comfort seems a low priority for some makes. The BMW bikes normally have vents to direct the air for comfort cooling or warming when needed. At least on the water I get a nice cooling effect when the wind blows. Having said this- any donations of European registered bikes will be greatly appreciated.

Katter jnr is a major gun importer and seller. He believes in the right to have a machine gun but no rights for women's bodies. Very much a trumpian

The biggest problem with the NACC is labour caved in and knackered it.

Go to their base tree- their home and offer them some raw chicken bits. Just make sure they are at home and see it's you feeding them. They will quickly make friends.

Rebuilding the houseboat deck- zoro's fishing spot.
Litespeed replied to Litespeed's topic in General Discussion
No peas allowed on my plate, ever. I am on large warfarin doses 7mg min. Peas wreck the levels plus taste crap. Had a bad cold/man flue for last week or so and thus the deck is yet to be finished off. It's safe but the lazy sickly salt chippy is hard to motivate- that would be me. Rain for rest of week so weekend return to tools. -

I think managing the "cranks" of the anti EV brigade is a bigger priority.

It's all good, I check all body bits before cutting and after A general Reno category would be good to keep it easy to find. The big challenge I will have, is after the deck, I need to add more floatation to the rear as the house sits low at the back by 6 inches. That will be a diving job, more fun.
