What with all the masses of rain and cold weather we'd been having lately, I really hadn't been up to much. Plus I was struck down for a week with the dreaded flu bug that had been doing the rounds.
The weather for this Saturday looked promising, and I still needed to test drive the Green Cortina after trying another set of bigger size jets in the carburettor, so I decided to make the effort and make an appearance.
It was a good turnout and there was some beautiful old Fords there. An added bonus was seeing friends again that I hadn't seen since before Christmas. All in all it was a good meeting and I'm looking forward to the weather warming up so I can get out to some more.
After the meet I followed Keith back to his place to pick up some parts and it was good fun chasing his Lotus Cortina through the country lanes. The two cars drew quite a few looks from bystanders and pedestrians.
My test drive had been good, and the car is almost there, but not quite. I'm going to try another set of bigger jets, but if that doesn't cure it, I'm going to book it in for a rolling road session. Watch this space.
