  1. Thanks for sharing. You deserve some breaks.
  2. Yes but the claimed top speed of the 400 was about 20mph higher. 103 vs 83mph. In fairness it was big and heavy even for a 400.
  3. Was it still running a single front brake disk?
  4. I don't either. It's on Freesat, Channel 147. It's also on Freeview, Channel 11.
  5. It's on tomorrow (Friday) at 10pm on Sky Arts (Freesat) and again on Sunday at 10:40pm.
  6. Yes. 400 Super Dream. No studs were damaged but I did a nifty head and barrels off job with the engine still in the frame. Welded some pieces of an extension bar together to get at the big end nuts without needing to split the engine. All done and back together in an evening. It's not how I'd do it these days but I was an apprentice and more willing to take risks then. Oh yes... Like you said, EZ outs (screw/bolt extractors) may be the answer but you have to be very steady with the tiny drill bit to get the pilot hole in the centre. The smallest extractor is usually good for screw shanks of 3 to 5mm diameter. You will need a tap wrench to use one.
  7. That's quite effective. Is there a colour changing option with that rope? I've used the ribbon but it's not great for sweeping bends and stuff.
  8. I've done this with a single speaker at the rear. It's astonishing how some things jump out from the back. I ran it for many years without problems. For the last ten years I've had multi-channel in 5.1 with a wish to go to 7.1 but with the extra speakers above the front pair to give a sense of height on some of those Dolby Atmos soundtracks you get on action films. I'd need something like a pair of PA speaker stands in my living room so I haven't bothered (yet). The other option I considered was to attach a couple of smallish wedge cabs to the ceiling but it's a very old house and I daren't. I'm not sure it would be worth the effort. I'm quite happy with 5.1. On Blu-Ray Audio I have Supertramp - Crime of the Century Genesis - Selling England by the Pound Pink Floyd - The Endless River Pink Floyd - Animals 2018 Remix The Beatles - 1 The Beatles - Eight Days a Week David Gilmour - Rattle that Lock Bob Marley - Legend There isn't as much available in that format as I'd like.
  9. TFFT. With the recent news of scammers targetting Basschat I wondered if I might have been hacked. Thanks for putting my mind to rest.
