Coyote

This weekend I made a test with a radar warning device named Coyote. It is legal and not only shows fixed and mobile speed controls, but also accidents, traffic jams or obstructions on the road ahead. I positioned it fairly in my field of view and it is quite pleasant to drive this way. My +300km trip through Luxembourg went without any major issue. I let her cool down before I stored her in the garage until the next blat.

Cheers.

Official insurance shots

Since the rebuilt, I was driving with just the minimum of risk coverage to keep charges low. But always with that memory of lots of cash spent for parts, workshop rental and tools in mind, I didn't feel right. Lately my insurance company came up with a good deal for a new kind of tariff for car collectors and classic car drivers. They needed to know the average mileage per year and wanted current pics, so with the fine weather on last Saturday, I took the shots above. Consider this to be the "official shots".
Cheers.

Aluminum (... waste of)

Imagine how many Seven one could have build with all that aluminum. What a waste! :-)
Cheers.

Daytrip

 

Short trip to Lorraine/France, a mere 50km from home but already some vacation feeling.
Cheers.

Icecream rest

Shady spot for my old lady while resting with some icecream. Will definitively have to do something about heat management and those 'original' but ugly doors.
Cheers.

SSF-Meeting in Luxembourg

A bunch of Simply Seven Forum members met in Luxembourg last weekend. Although the weather was awful with heavy rain during the Saturday ride, the mood was excellent. An expert photographer took pictures and I only slightly blurred the background in above photo taken by Lupo.
Cheers.

Stoned

Roadworks in my area give for a nice backdrop.
Cheers.

MoT postponed

More little works done since I had to postpone the MoT, awful weather ...
Next try will be on Saturday.
Cheers.

Resurrection

First drive since 18 months ... strange feeling, but great relief. Tomorrow MoT. Fingers crossed.
Cheers.

Art shot

Quite some time spent since the rebuilt start, so I decided to make a pause tonight and tried to catch the workshop atmosphere.
Cheers.

Autumn Seven

Couldn't resist and took some more beauty shots in this beautiful autumn scenery. Some last pics before the great switch from carbs to injection.
Cheers.

Beauty shot(s)

Always work and no play? Now and then I will post a beauty shot, mostly before or after a little run. I'm permanently looking for nice spots to picture the car, good light, interesting landscape, preferably some old industry or abandoned mill.
Cheers.

Rear

 

Still a lot of work to achieve before I can call it "perfect", but already a nice rear view with the new 225/45R15 tires from Toyo (Proxxes R1R). Have a nice weekend.

Cheers.
