Good point, I have a few old brit bikes that took a fair bit of twiddling to come right. And they still leave me standing on the side of the road phoning a friend occasionally.
[edit] and by 'twiddling' I mean redesigning, remachining and rebuilding much of the original.

This reminds of that stupid Toyota Corolla guy that wanted to go to Beach Hop. Because its so damn rare, its worth its weight in Gold x 1000.

To9 be fair, I can't recall the last time I saw a Torana, or 180B or even a mkIII Cortina on the road, and they used to be everywhere.
When you do spy one they are usually very tidy, lurking in sheds waiting for sunny days, and nothing wrong with that.
