Some art work and racing numbers on two lovely Formosa’s

  Painting the Pegasus Logo and number roundels and figures in a very continental style. I keep dreaming Sophia Loren will loom in the doorway as these cars are so from a romantic road race period... dream on!

Oh what now, more interruptions, looks like someone is lost?

Hopefully the view that competitors will see of the Wolseley Supercharged Special (detailed in older posts).

 

Some motorcycle fun in Wales a few years ago!

 

Perkins P6

 This is another project that has been postponed but is now up and in progress again.

BSA spl build in the workshop... from our Archive past. Please click on the photo to enlarge.

This was a nice project, more can be seen in my old historicengineco.blogspot.com

I wish my workshop looked this good today!

 

Roesch Talbot

 This was an interesting engine build. Although a 6 cylinder with seven main bearings, it is very compact having very narrow main bearing shells much as todays engines. The valve train is extremely light, the push rods are so slim and tapered that they were actually made by a British knitting needle company as they had the skills and tooling!

We made new oversize King pins and had them heat treated and ground.

This is due to be continued in 2025

This is a CIME french engine for a GN.

They are extremely rare, we were able to build one engine out of three, we also had many parts to machine and manufacture as well as making a deeper oil pump to increase the flow.
