Quote from: Eccentric shaft on June 07, 2024, 09:18:12 AMPoster for the next upcoming 2-minute film epic. With some wheels rolling for a change.
Of course, Noriaki's left headlamp bulb chose to retire on the occasion...

Never mind the head lamp, it a great picture.

That sounds like a good title for a rock album!

No, the annoying bit was that the headlamp was one of those 9 mot fails. Now sorted (again) of course.

And here's the vid:

Thanks for that. Lisa will put it up on MRC Face Book.

Hanging out with old compatriots

OK, I give up, is it an early Toyota ?

Eccentric shaft · August 08, 2024, 10:10:54 PM

It's the original Datsun Bluebird. The Toyota Corona was the one with the wedge-shaped front.

Here's more from the event. Great variation, so much more to guess about.

New shoes!

So immaculate and not just the tyres

.

Plan is to immaculate 470 kms south to Lofoten tomorrow to meet up with the Northern Rotaries gang from err.. from the south of the North.

They get away with 350 kms and a serious ferry ride. If all goes well, there will be posts, pics and vids on this forum soon. Probably also if it doesn't.

There will be no less than two Eunos Cosmos and one HB Cosmo, and that's only half of the rotaries expected.

All went well. 522kms down, 472kms back & Noriaki was super smooth on his fresh tyres. Still some carb splutters, but a great success. Have too much material, so will be making videos for days. Here's the first, and a sneak peek (pic) of the record rotary turn-out: 7 cars (a two, two sevens, an eight and three Cosmos)

As promised: More from Lofoten:

And guess what showed up on day 2, Jamie: the MB diesel-powered '58 Zephyr. Great noise!
(No, not the shiny one)

Drives after dark signal the end of a great season is nigh...
