You lucky duck!

I really miss my Aerodeck :( I've been oggling over that red one on ebay at the moment :?

That is a tidy one! Saw it at the Retro Car magazine meet in Rockingham. Auto still though :( very clean compared to most, but price reflects that I guess :/

Yeah, I think I've convinced myself I'll get one in several years, once my garage is sorted and I'll drop either a B20a7 or an H22a in it 8) I'll be fitting 3rd gen Prelude coilovers to it too ;-)

Maybe, but... Will it really be worth the effort? :?

Got my steering wheel I wanted for my birthday! Absolutely in love! (Also BabyG watch)

Now I just need to find a nice weighty gold gear knob to go with it. I like big ones though and everything 'Honda fitment', or actually most I find in general, seems to be the same tiny style ones :cry: so may have to be a custom one.

Test painted my every-day wheels the other day.

Will be gold centres and polished lips when I do them properly. Ignore how badly they're painted I rushed to get the masking tape off to see what they looked like and it dripped everywhere :lol:

Then went to offer them up to the car... CB is wrong. Don't fit. Need to make the centre bore bigger to fit the adapters I had made for the Eclats :oops:
Assumed as they were similar era Lotus they'd be the same as the Eclats. Nope, they're like 3mm off! :evil:
