Hello to all, also not a TT but Jimmy Adamo's last BIG bevel racer. Hope to have it in presentable shape by the next gathering. Happy Holidays to all. Ralph

Here's another non F1/TT project, but coming together along side one. Adamo's first 851.

Now this is fun!

Pat can't even remember to send me that TR No. 8 magazine article; I go to the mailbox every day, only to be sadly disappointed. MikeV

I am new to this Vim stuff but what it does is clean stains out of aluminum bits and stains on anodized stuff as well. I have not used it on calipers yet but on the NCR clutch housing it quickly removed oil and clutch disc dirt stains. Steve Munro says he uses an electric toothbrush and Vim. I just used a regular toothbrush and have to say I am sold on this stuff. It works. Lou

Bill, Are you going to put carbs on the 851? I saw it like that in Renos basement/shop years ago. Seems he couldn't get chips from Ferracci to tune it from what I've heard.

You'll be right Bill - that should just polish out...
