Tim Wells was going to get the car but since valve rocker came loose when he was here driving it, he therefore doesn't get it. So it must be yours. Hey, maybe we can play a pool game and see if you win the car.

I figured if the little blue vette couldn't hold itself together it would never make the trip back home, so I told Steve to just let someone else get the chance to rook him out of it. Perhaps in a friendly (or not) game of 8 ball...

Watch the side pipe getting out of it; been there, done that, got the scar to prove it..

Hi Tim,

You should have not said about the side exhaust pipes,those are the special fittings to deter and stop people taking the car away.
If they take it away they hesitate to come out till the police come !

The workshop is really very nice, it really an asset to have and we will see great tools made there.
The pool table and gym are good too.I can play snooker don't know about pool....
Where the Bar, the Milkshake and ice cream counters ?

I bet you you forgot to do them .

God Bless the new Workshop.

A praise worthy achievement for Steve L

Thanks Jeffro! You're right. That don't build them like they used to. There are pics during the restoring of the shaper project here

Tim, Oh..that is right.. you left leg skin on the side pipe! That hurts.. ouch!! Also it was hard to scrub your skin off the pipe.
I replaced that rocker nut that broke. I'm sure since you gave the car a checkout testing drive and so Mrthe can make it all the way to Spain without it breaking.

Mrthe, I'm sure you'd win the pool game! The Jeep project should be close to finished in another week.

Thanks MO! If you're good at snooker then you'd be fantastic at pool! Yes, need to add some furniture yet or even better as you say.. an ice-cream bar in the room.

Hey Steve. I haven't been here on the forum in quite a while. I am making a return here though. That is a great shop, although the original had a cozy feel to it, what with all those vintage machines so lovingly restored. I really liked your updates of the cincinnati restorations. As I recall, you used spray cans on the Monarch. Did you use them on the big mill and shaper as well?
