Finally taken the plunge and blagged myself a nice `79 spider. Only just drove it home and I`m absolutely delighted with it so far. There is a few little things to attend to but that should be the fun stuff.
It has to be said that this forum was instrumental with making my mind up to go Italian, as I was toying with MG`s and stuff or maybe another motorcycle. I`m pretty sure I`ve made the right choice. Well, it was this or some new windows for the basement,

Not quite legal so hopefully it`s a nice day tomorrow and I can slope off early from work...
Cheers
Phil
