With the weather well into the autumn vibe now and cold wet mornings seeming the norm, it was too good an opportunity to miss today as the sky was blue and the sun was out, albeit a foot off the ground. The car felt good as I went on a 10 mile trip out, stopping at my parents on route. I took my daughter with me (she can barely see out the window but does love going out in it) and it was nice to just cruise in the sun getting plenty of admiring glances from passers by. After the trip out I added some more padding to the rear luggage boards above the spare wheel as they do bang around a lot and I would like to hear more exhaust note and less ply wood board. Rev counter worked continuously during the trip so the jurys still out on that one. Also, no dieseling on switch off since I lowered the RPM idle slightly on the carbs.
I've been trawling the internet recently for various GT6 info with an eye on the various jobs that need doing on the car. I'm truly amazed how many people comment they dont like the Saffron GT6. Are they mad or have they never seen one in the flesh? Its a great looking car and in my opinion even more so in Saffron Yellow. Its such a pure 70's colour and really works with this car more than any other.
