Fridge on wheels

Lightburn Zeta for sale. I have been looking at this for a while, but don't quite get the price. Maybe it is Australian Austros or Zimbabwean Roubles.

Another car I feel is worth missing. Joining the grumpy guys moaning about high prices. Is this the car that was road tested a while back I wonder?

I did wonder as it was referencing Campbell and the land speed attempt. Is that why its blue? Toilet blue? Which brings me to why I do not like Campbell's meatballs.

The normal Zeta Sports would be worht quite a bit, but thats just because of the engine. Shame my dad sold his old sports! It had an engine that wadnt even run in yet!

We left the engine in the car, we sold it together. My dad regrets it now, but at least the owner of the car has a car with mathcing numbetrs.

We all have things we wished we had kept. You cannot have them all - unless you are seriously wealthy, but then does it mean so much? Better to have had and sold then not had. Like the Inter Bob had from me. It was a good deal at the time and he did what I would not have got round to. Got it restored. At least I have had one.

Yes, we both regretted selling that one on but my bungalow needed a new roof at the time and I was finding it difficult to justify to Shelley my owning the car whilst emptying the saucepans of water! Happily I didn't have to wait too long for the current Inter to come along.

I hope you do not use your Inter as a sink!

Just the kind of remark one would expect from a Scouser!

Q: What's the difference between a Scouser [Richard Warren] and a coconut?
A: One's thick and hairy, and the other's a coconut.
