Progress, progress! Hanging the front bumper spacers and the engine compartment struts out ready for POR15 painting :
These have had a complete paint strip back to the bare metal - and then soaked in POR15 "Metal Ready" for a day. Look carefully and you can see the white residual - that's the zinc etched coating.

Alex Poulter was talking about having a BBQ corner for owners of 33s. (If I had written 'for 33 owners' it would have begged the question - owners of what!) Not sure whether to take the P4 or me whity. Look forward to meeting up there.

The track day is at Taupo on the new track this time (as opposed to old track or full track).
http://www.oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=12758
They're still looking for entrants - have you got a suitable car amongst your fleet?
I've already got a set of 1500 heads and camboxes, but before I can fit them to the black car I need to get the grey car usable (needs timing belts, struts and CV boot). Currently I'm stuck doing a CV boot on my black car, as you'll have seen in the 33 Workshop part of this forum.
So I still have only one half-usable car (grey one) and every time I drive it I'm terrified a cambelt will snap.

Just thought id remark that the site still seems very active, especially given that according to Practical Classics (who get their info from the DVLA), there are only 40 33 16v cloverleafs left taxd + motd in the uk.
At least I think thats what model it listed

My figures from March last year totalled 176 16v of all types (including P4s) taxed in the UK, but that may have changed. (There were over 1000 in 2001). I think the figure refferred to is that for the non-cat 16v cloverleaf of which there were 42 taxed last year and 27 declared SORN.
