    It needs to be driven more often, they don't like being stood for too long. I'm taking it you've still got the manual fuel pump and not a leccy replacement ?

    Well the last four weeks have been brutally cold here in Bavaria, but on Tuesday it warmed a bit. That’s about the same time I couldn’t help but notice lots of small spots that hurt like hell on the right side of my head. This morning I was awake at 2am unable to sleep any longer, right side of my head covered in pustules and my ear swollen up twice the size of the other.............a visit to the doctor followed at 8.30. ............Apparently I’ve got shingles.......oh fucking joy. Medication of the strongest type has been issued, and after another visit to the doctor scheduled for Monday morning it’s looking like a visit to the hospital for a brief spell in one of their beds unless there is dramatic improvement........ this shit hurts like fuck.....just bloody wonderful.......

    Well it’s just about nine in the evening over here and I’m gonna head for bed. Don’t know what’s in them pills the doc sorted but unbelievably I’m not in pain, this should really be in the deliriously happy thread.

    A buddy of mine in California imported 6 mini's from Australia, then built 5 all standard show cars with them (sold them) and with the sixth one decided to do something of a sleeper. I drove this thing around the Temecula hills one day...........fookin fast is understated.

    Thinking back this was December 2018, so longer ago than i thought.
    The Jeep came to Germany with us, the TR6 and Dodge are in England, hence different movers.
    Loaded up and heading for the docks.

    Another advantage of importing a scrap vehicle that's worth nothing and fixing it myself here.
    Where I am at with this is that I could pay good money for something and find that it's got an expensive problem very easily (the 6.0 has bad reputation for this), so why not just buy something that's already broken?
    My wife says that I like rescuing broken things.
