Yella Terra back on the road today after another engine rebuild following another failed lifter.     :grr:

Couple of weeks to run her in, and lookout ACT and Victorian Vettes. ( says he with fingers crossed........couldn't be another bad lifter in the batch could there???)   :yap:

Looking forward as always to this annual clash of the East Coast Vette clubs.    :drag:

BB`s come with a  built  in handicap,
 its the torque! that come on as you try to keep it going where you are pointing the vehicle. and  the vehicle is trying hard  to do 360`s

Yeah I was beginning to think they have painted that black lookalike material on the roof for show. Unfortunatly the guy at the Dealers opened it up, works like a bought one. Maybe I'm holding my mouth wrong ?
