I thought we always assumed we were looking at the engine with the fan facing towards us when discussing left bank & right bank ?

If that's the case, you got it correct Andy ;)

On Saturday/Sunday fitted some gauge light bulbs sold to me by Andy. Much easier to fit then I imagined. Lit bonnet, undo carpet, pulled bulb from the back of the gauge and change for new bulb!

On Sunday took some of the family back to Euston Station. We managed to fit Mrs B, Jasmin, Ellie and Belle (the dog) into the 912. As I walked to pick up the car it was raining and hailing but duriing the drive it was sunny and dry!

Still messing about trying to work out a suitable air filter system for my 904 so, for occasions when I'm running open trumpets, I made up a cheap set of covers :

Just fitted a nice balsa type of 917 gear knob from Chris at Fellane to my 73T big shift lever to compliment the Nardi Wheel, looks a real treat and only £45!

Just the silencer to do now and the car will be 'softened' for the road but can be revised quickly if I want to hillclimb it again. :bounce:
