Had a good day yesterday and we had 7 E21's show up for the stand :)
Surprisingly there were more Baur's than tin tops.

On a restoration/race car build stand there was Mark's recent Group 2 shell and a bare shell and another nice road car.

I'll try and post some pics tonight

That's the good thing when people are willing to put the effort and support in .
Beats slagging it of all the time.
Was good to see you guys.

We did our best. Tested the "if you go fast enough you don't get wet theory" going up the M40 and it worked (with the rear screen up). Really need to change the carb to a Weber in search of more than 20 mpg. Taking it all the way to Fishguard on 20.09. Wish me luck.
