v8ian, is that your car in the avatar? and where you at the Stafford show a couple of weekends ago? It was my car, unfortunately redundancy and splitting up with the missus decided it had to go,!!!! It was rover powered on Throttle bodies, but I believe its LS3 powered now, I would be surprised if it was as far as Stafford, as I think its in SE London,

Bstardchild, I'm pretty sure it did come up on the General board, I got there through Facebook. It's interesting, since I have a Celica GT-Four and a Super Beetle. It's already got strut towers, should pretty much bolt in, yes?!

As far as magazines go on a monthly basis I get Retro Cars , Performance VW , Ultra VW and Volksworld and occasionally Fast Car ( this months is excellent ! ) Online the only places I tend to use these days are this place , eBay and Facebook along with the odd look at Speedhunters . As for the television it'd be 'For the love of cars' and ' Top Gear ' .

For me: Magazines. Practical classics - (gone down hill lately far less practical content). Classics Monthly - in my opinion better than practical classics now. PPC - bit thin but all interesting content. Classic and sportscar - well written in depth articles. Youtube Retropower Bad obscesion motorsport Iron trap garage Edd Chinas workshop On line Here. Occasionaly practical classics facebook. Morris minor OC forum. In general I can't really get on with facebook twitter etc, prefer longer threads and articles to quick soundbites.

I watched the latest Retropower Autofocus video today about body panels. The bit about Edd China's laser cleaner video and how you don't want to do laser cleaning, without saying Edd China but being very obvious who he meant was great . Jonny Smith/Late Brake Show posted about this by Fabco, putting Jag S Type V6 guts into an Austin Princess youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_maLGXxDJ4a1vV6-lGFtloxJPS5JjuAo

On here is all I need. Cool cars, cool people who don't mind helping you with a problem. I cant find a TV programme that doesn't annoy me in some way. I've lost touch with magazines and the ones I wanted to read stopped publishing a long time a go

There's all sorts of styles about all sorts of cars and projects that you might not find annoying posted here. Late Brake Show, Bad Obsession Motorsport, Retropower, Mighty Car Mods, Carthrottle, Harry's Garage, just as a few of the 'big' channels.

I tend to watch a lot of what the folk on here recommend on youtube, I cannot be bothered to watch sin city motors etc... the annoying voices of some of them, and the all too often prepped n shoot talentless decisions where the work is pushed aside and you see very little of what you used to see in the earlier programmes, so with Youtube, i occasionally think up things to look at such as; rear wheel drive Mondeo,rwd Honda civic or v8 powered Ford Focus or Worlds fastest Datsun etc.... I have seen most of the Hoonigan shorts, but only up to where the actual cars tend to look boring with NO character, or, i have to flick thru to the predictions as i really cannot stand hearing some fool say the word 'LIKE' 30 times a sentence when the word is not really required! otherwise that's it for me, oh! before i forget, Bathhurst with Brockman etc...racing 'LIKE' men possessed in Holdens, RS 500's, Toyota's etc..... and to top it all, and i still have to go back and watch BOTH parts....The Black/White footage with (I think...Harry Carpenter) Crystal Palace racing with vauxhall viva's, a Chevy, screaming Escorts and Mini's etc.... switch your phone off, and become mesmerised watching real men going into bends and laughing to themselves as the Middle pedal is pointless and it's all about that right foot !!! For me, this is First class saloon car racing........ I am clearly born from the wrong Generation...... (or am I?)

It got me wondering, does Simon rmad have any Austin Princess drawings or designs?
