The Excel definitely went through the level crossing on red lights given the timing of the barriers coming down! That was Terrible!

Music: - not too bad-a-song lyric-wise - but could do with a remix -the balance of backing guitar(s) to vocal was TERRIBLE! I did like the guitar solo though.

Thought I’d add this one - I assume most will have seen it

Good video ..you could feel the speed on the slip roads and flatness and fluidity on the roundabouts. A very successful conversion in that respect!

Looks like they fitted a master Cylinder and presumably filled the brake lines before the body went back on. Interesting.
I wish my progress was that swift

Awful lot of standing around by those LB workers, especially that Dave geezer. He was sat down half the time too!

Not a Lotus but a Lotus man in fine fettle in the Jack Brabham Trophy Race
