I love this, I just found one of these vans for sale near me, but not in running condition unfortunately. I gotta say though, can you smell your clutch?

Meanwhile I am working on my 1929 Triumph Soper Seven car as you can see there is a lot to do but there has been a lot done!!

Thanks from Australia and have a great day Robin

[robinheath1]

Thanks and I look forward to watching more of your adventures over the next few years hey?

I found a V8 Suzuki van dragcar here the other day and will send you some pics when they start her up later this year it sounds awesome for a microcar!!

[2stroketurbo]

Whoa. a V8 Suzuki van? Is this the one that does burnout contests?

[Infinitrium]

And most people think they need a 5000 pound V8 pickup truck to tow anything!

[2stroketurbo]

It is funny to think the big three have brainwashed us and have determined for us what we need to drive......

[robinheath1]

Very nice job and well done.

Nice to see all your efforts at the car show

this is a real treat thanks from Cairns Australia.

[2stroketurbo]

Hey Thanks. It's a treat to hear from you so far away.

Nice! Where was the car show? I keep missing these shows. I am in Newberg.

[2stroketurbo]

This show is the season opener every year. I always debut something new I've worked on over the winter. PTW has hosted this for show 29 years running, I've gone to at least 12. Located in inner SE Portland just off Hawthorne 11th and Clay every year 2nd Saturday in May 6-11am.

It's my favorite show... besides my own Great Pacific NW Microcar show I host every June

Very cool video.  Funny, we had a nice day over here in Yamhill county.

[2stroketurbo]

You must be in the "Bannana Belt" on the leeward side of the coast range....

4:05 Gorgeous! Hate the wheels but that's a small detail.

[2stroketurbo]

Which wheels? 

[Threetails]

@2stroketurbo The ones on the hand-built car at 4:05.

[2stroketurbo]

ah.....I didn't see the time stamp, the marvelous Chitty-Chitty bang bang 4wd does have ugly wheels

[peckerwood57]

I enjoyed the show and didn't even get wet. Nice towing.

[2stroketurbo]

It was wet! Glad to keep you dry...

[todd2000gcinet]

I really like the toeing seines! Good job w installing the tow package, & the faith that a 360 cc engine could do the job! Top speed on trip?

[2stroketurbo]

Top speed was 35 mph 3rd gear on smooth road slight uphill, could have gone faster, but afraid of panic stopping distance
