More info on the tool I was referring to:

The dutton garage makes classic throttle look like the $2 shop. Be prepared to be sitting down if/when you ring for the price

Was his car an aussie delivery? if I recall right, your GB is a high comp motor, so I could easily see a high comp motor being about the same as an aussie car with a 450 rear end???

the grille certainly makes it look more aggressive. Not sure I like it though, but I have seen another car with this mod... I think in some photos from WA? It works better with the v8 with its restyled front end, rostyles, coachlines and I think would look a bit odd on a 3 liter. I...

Has anyone ever looked at combining a 450 rear end with a separate overdrive unit? That would make 1st gear more usable but at the same time give the overdrive gear that is needed. I watched one of the Jay leno videos a few years ago and he fitted an overdrive to a 426 hemi so if it can...

Shannons Auction in Melbourne is coming up soon. I've not seen the cars up close, but from the description these two are my picks https://www.shannons.com.au/auctions/2018-shannons-melbourne-winter-classic-auction/L14W9F92EPYA6Y20/ 1953 Alvis TC21 - $15-20k I know very little about...

And here is B158LS, for sale here in Australia for AUD$150k. Being a late 4 1/4 liter, it is a nice example of the 'razor edge' coachwork that was popular in the late 30s. personally I prefer the earlier styles in the 3 1/2 liter and early 4 1/4's. Being a late car it has the overdrive...

Some of you know I am a fan of the Derby Bentley. This is B118HK, and early 4 1/4 liter from 1936 and one of the nicest coachbuilt bodies i've seen by J Gurney Nutting.

Interesting 3l manual overdrive in the uk. I like the colour combo of burgundy/grey. a little tatty but shows the lines of the car well. for some reason it is sporting a single lucas fog light. I also don't like the mirrors halfway upo the front wings, something you see on a lot of uk...

This 6.9 looks like a decent example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/202325855490

Nice two tone rover at a recent show: This one is a nice colour and has the lucas driving lights

Octane Magazine did a feature to see the Northern Lights in a cheap ebay Silver Shadow. You can see the behind the scenes look in these videos. Worth the watch: Note, it is about an hour to watch both videos. VIdNcbsgOiM R8kLE9vVlJ0 I don't subscribe to the magazine, so have not read...

I present you the late 70s. A rolls Royce Camargue in GOLD. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1979-rolls-royce-camargue/

https://www.autotrader.com/car-news/beige-luxury-car-interior-dead-281474979855362 I can't remember the last time I saw one that wasn't black

somebody needs to buy this and save it from the ridiculous suspension it is now sporting: https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/camperdown/cars-vans-utes/classic-mercedes-280-s-1969-model-for-sale-sydney/1183514335

I've been staggered by a couple of recent examples of depreciation I have seen in luxury cars. 1) My E350T. Purchased 9 years old with a full year of rego for $18,000. Sold new for over $130k. That is almost $13k per year of depreciation. 2) My brother is buying an E63 BMW (650i)...

Good photo gallery of the Citroen CX: https://petrolicious.com/articles/this-citroen-was-made-to-crush-continents-with-a-family-onboard The CX didn't do well through the banger phase and few are left. There are a lot of untrue rumours about these cars like how the C-Matic transmission can't...

While not related to Syria's 3500, this one for sale has a great red interior! https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/cygnet/cars-vans-utes/1971-rover-3-5-litre-sedan/1182444079

Was some great buys there. If I had more time, I would have bought a couple of cars and some boxes of parts and out of them built 1-2 really good ones. For example there were freshly painted body shells with no engines or interiors going for $80.
