Hello again

It has been quite some time since I was last on this forum and now we are at the eve of our next tour in Europe. This time we will be traveling at least part of the time with two other Australian Lagonda Rapiers. attached is a photograph of the cars waiting to be packed into a 40ft container for the six week voyage to England.

Meanwhile I hope that all the AACA members have been following the Dixie Flyer in my magazine articles "Road To Louisville. Despite taking three months out for our holiday I believe that we are still on track for Louisville July 2010.

Some major progress has been made and the scene is set for non-stop work once we return in August

Hello All the Dixie Flyer watchers

We have now been back from our European jaunt for a little over a month and work has started again on the Dixie Flyer. For those who have been following the story in the Antique Automobile it is all systems go again. The radiator has been repaired and is now fitted to the chassis. The clutch all sorted out and fitted to the flywheel. the gearbox is almost ready to go together again. Attached is a photo of the new gears prior to re-assembling the gearbox.
