That is so cool, can just see your C5 in the back ground, can't see from the picture too much, but can see steel wheels all round ? What are you doing to it which invovles a workshop like this ?

It's going to be a time machine, could not find a DeLorean so it's a Sinclair LOL.

......just like the original Sinclair C5 project, all participants in this little project are sworn to secrecy :-X
If it all works out as planned, it should be really good fun though ;D
We're hoping for a first test run end of the month/early July ;)
As for the Grinnall , I reckon one of those would make a superb "retirement" present when I give up all things "C5" , .........by that time I'll be able to afford one :D

I doubt you'll ever give up the C5's - lol

Lets hope we all don't, just think how funny it look with us on are C5's in thirty years, it would be like last of the summer wine in C5's ;D Don't know who would be compo ?

lol now that's funny !! made me laugh - I don't tend to plan that far a head but....... Deep Heat is my friend - lol.
Mark and I went out for a C5 drive today - went about 7 miles hooted at a PC and had a smile from him, it was like a mini meet, well enjoyed it.
Oh yes i forgot to mention, the 038 battery on his only lost 1 green light - whist my dead expensive calcium battery peeped and cut out when we got back - now I am a lot heaver than Mark - but jeez I expected it to last longer than that!
-
I've been getting through the deep heat recently as i have torn some mussels in the bottom of my back, its been over two weeks and it still hurts quite a bit by the end of the day, so i'm already finding out what i will have to deal in my later years.

I bet you had a big smile on your Karl going for a spin in it, looks really fun, I do hope one day I can get a big toy kit car of some sort.
