Re: NV 2803 - 1933 McEvoy Special
Quick update. The car is now a rolling chassis again. All done except the wheels and fitting new Hartfords. I have also collected the cylinder block and head from Autosport in Seattle. They have magnafluxed the block (no cracks), rebored it, skimmed the gasket face and re-cut the valve seats and fit...

Re: Website Wonders
The website has been edited and maintained using Netscape for many years. Netscape ceased to be supported about 20 years ago and does not run on current versions of Windows, so I have been making all edits on my ancient desktop PC whose life hangs by a thread and in any case won't be any good on 240...

Re: 1933 Maddox Fixed head Coupe EN 5810
Update 2023! The Maddox is still here at VMR HQ Seattle but the plan is to ship it back to the UK next spring and get it to Paul Maddox. One complication just sorted is the title for the car. It was sold from the Ellingson Motor Museum, Minnesota to Ian Samuel in Ontario, Canada in 2011 but he never...

To all you Minor saloon owners out there. Barry Smith is asking for a description and/or source for the rubber strip for his rear window glass. Can anyone advise?
Thanks in advance and I will pass on any info to help Barry with LG 6677 (M33466).

Not sure which is worse...
