Your car could be considered to be more desirable now.
And yes, my silly (quite inferior) red stripe has always been on my declaration. Never thought I'd talk down my stripe......

Re: Mello Yello
James.
The car looks great, love the colour scheme, but you stole my thunder !
I was going for a similar look rather than the usual Group B colour scheme, but with my car being white was going to use a combination of red and blue stripes..........
Might need a rethink now.

Re: Mello Yello
Whilst my engine is out I am going to be undertaking a few jobs that need doing.
One of these was the fuel pump which seemed to have inconsistent performance - Tool and Lucky can testify to that on the trip to RRG14. It is a Mallory 4110 which should pump harder than Sylvester and Arnold combined.
So i whipped it off at the weekend and cracked it open. What I found inside is not so hot. The power cable has been pulled tight so that it has dragged across the commutator and ripped it to shreds. Poorly designed or unfortunate event.
Should still work but will go through bushes a bit quicker.

Re: Mello Yello
Answered my question too, I was wondering what you used to drive the IDA.
I'm still undecided on the best pump set up.

Re: Mello Yello
I'm absolutely loving the livery 
looks awesome, way better than when you got it! I'd like to know more about the new motor too 
Also, Race Numbers on a road car can be a pain, my dad used to race his lotus, he drove to/from races with numbers on and got pulled over and told they weren't allowed. That was 30 years ago too, would be even more a pain these days I think.
