Default visiting Keith

After 2 exciting days with Bob and another 2 days on Kangaroo Island visiting Penguins, Aussie Sealions, NZ Fur Seals and Remarkable Rocks, I'm back in the colder climate in Melbourne. Got picked up by Keith on Saturday and got to drive my old girl.

Gosh, thanks to Ganmain Tony and his Magic Hands on Carbi's she's running beautifully and very powerful. Perfect for the Swiss Mountains. Think I could overtake even a Jeep

I had a good drive yesterday and today and polished the gears a little bit. Good I had a go cause I think I would have not remembered not to pull the clutch 100% through, otherwise I could never had found a gear and wouln't be able to drive her out of the container in Switzerland. How embarrassing...

I also paid a short visit to Euan and looked again at his latest project, soon ready on the road.

Here are 2 videos I took:

Greetings
Chris

PS Most embarassing moment. Drove in 3rd gear into Keiths property and stalled her. Couln't start her afterwards because the carbi was flooded... Luckily there weren't any other visitors...
