That'd be ace, wasnt ecpecting someone to offer personal space ! but thanks very much . Email sent.
One is the very first start-up, that old engine hasnt run for a good two years ! and the other is later on after a few teething problems...like a VERY
leaky fuel hose, a couple of blown fuel pump fuses and then getting a decent idle. Just had to give it some beans aswell !

Doh ! in my excitment I was looking at file dates and I meant yesterday... changed now
Cant get these files to email and after having spent most of the morning trying to convert them to reduce the file size you are gonna have to use your
imagination and errr take my word for it, ho hum
Anyway, BIG milestone for me, next step is getting it so it drives, so brakes and clutch. Although they are practically done (famous last words, as I
thought I was practically ready to start it 1 month ago)

Excellent news
WRT videos, you can download windows media encoder to change your file sizes. Or of course you can use Stoik - google it, (much better) to encode your
file to any type and quality. Hotmail and Yahoo mail are now 10Mb attachments, you should be able to compress files enough to meet that.
Cheers,

By the wonders of technology, movies are here :
http://www.stitchmedia.co.uk/vids/
As I said, they are quite large and you'll need quicktime to view them at the mo. Before anyone says anything, not sure why I sound so limp
wristed at the end of the first movie, wish I'd kept my gob shut now, 'I aint gay or owt' ...the first movie is the best BTW. Plus
I look a bit of a mess as I (almost literally) fall out of bed into my garage muck at weekends so as to get maximum time working on the car !
