Six-cylinder Posted June 1, 2022 Author Share Posted June 1, 2022 This afternoon I tried to pump up the Tyres on the Alfa 156, I went to remove the metal valve caps but managed to twist the core out of it. So once again the garage is blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came up a day ahead in case it broke down, so that I could get recovered and bring a different car the following day! Didn't need to worry, it didn't skip a beat all the way up here despite being slower than an over-50s coach holiday. Weather looks like some rain Saturday morning but clearing up by midday and then cloudy for the remainder of the day. You coming up?

Six-cylinder Posted June 4, 2022 Author Share Posted June 4, 2022 Weather forecast is now dry and warm Saturday with sunshine late afternoon. Rain overnight clearing during Sunday morning. Coprolalia, Floatylight and bobdisk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted June 4, 2022 Author Share Posted June 4, 2022 Jubilee Day was a success and after 2+ years of hibernation for many of my cars I managed to turn out 5 cars that drove to the display and home again. All thanks is this forum who without all the help I received it would have not been possible, Thanks all involved. I believe there were 38 cars at the display so 5/38 means I turned out 13.2% of the cars there!

I last drove one in around 1994 and as a car-mad nineteen year old my memories remain very positive. The only negative was traction was always a bit sketchy when flooring it although that may have just been poor quality tyres. They've aged so well, regardless.
