Post by Wrongway Roger »

I went to one of the better car builder in Adelaide for their open day to check out the cars and the workshop.
These were in the build.

There is a right way and a wrong way and then there is my way which is usually the long way.

When I read the subject heading "autotransformer", I thought you were going to show me some photos of Variacs.
Blame it on my electrical engineering background.

That's what I was thinking Rob - " why is Roger posting pics of motor starters ??? "
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Nice Roger. The intake on the FC motor is an eye catcher.

The wagon is done other than a polish and wax.

You would need a large tash of cash to get a car done with these guys.
This is another car they did a little while back.
