  • Took 3rd in a car show this weekend.

    NOT with the Beretta unfortunately... that's still apart right now.

    Me and Amy took a ride up to NH for a British car show aka "Show of dreams" We were split on what car/cars to take... We had a choice of one or both Triumph's, the Mini, Amy's Midget, or the prize the Austin Healey... We opted for the Healey since her parents weren't going and it was the Featured Mark of the show.

    It was fun, we won 3rd place in our class which is awesome since this car is not a full frame off restoration like some of the cars there. It's a great car to drive and cruises nicely at 75 on the highway... Passing people and they are completely confused by it... lol

    A few pics.

    The car we took. 1960 Austin Healey 3000 Mk1, BN7 1 of 2,284




    I can say I think we were the ONLY two seater Healey there...

    such a happy car



    Even though it was all alone...



    I love the white walls on this car




    Yeah... Awesome project.








    Of course... In a Bentley...


    And the 380HP SC'd V6 Jaguar F-type...

    It was a fun day to just get away and not worry about crap around the house... Sunday on the other hand, I spent that day pounding out a RR bearing on the Legacy to change it out, as well as mixing and matching timing components on the Beretta to figure out what I want to go with temporarily... Ended up with factory gears and just ordered a new SA Chain and dampener... Hopefully it lasts long enough like until I get my DRTC setup fixed, no idea how strong a SA Chain is going to be... I am NOT using the cheap SA gears though.

    Got Lope?
