Two Men and a very old Baby

JayD · 2nd January 2009, 17:52

The old lady has finally left bangalore, her home for the past 50+ years. The roads are just perfect. We're doin 120 in the scorpio, and i can see the lady pulling away! :shocked

having some connectivity problems with the laptop, so not able to update the pix! :(

I had spoken to jayD earlier today and questioned the wisdom of letting nikki's craaazy surgical skills deliver the baby.
Pulling away from the scorpio at 120?

Coimbatore Ahoy! We've reached coimby, finished dinner, now moving on. We've bid farewell to the support car a while,back, and must've reached half way back already!

Steer, there's reason to celebrate, we've got a mileage of 18kmpl, and that too in full free flow mode!

@abi, the pix will follow soon! Just need a proper net access!

Guys

Get me a working car in the garage - please dont combine Speed and Mileage runs in one trip!

Still, I must admit thats pretty impressive progress you're making.

We can set records later. Lets get a working car down first!

So the stunning Fiat is already made it to a right destination.

Steer you lucky man, enjoy the car, its one hell of a performer.

This car does not require a restoration for another 100 years.

NOTE: pls paint this at the back. "buri nazar wale, tera muh kala"
