    Helloooooo Russ. My mate has dropped off that there manifold. It's an Offenhauser 360. It's not the one with a large hole where the carb sits, it's got two holes...if that makes sense. Also, I notice that it has the rear water outlet filled in for some reason and the one at the front has a copper pipe coming out of it surrounded by some black sealer. I think the best thing would be for my friend to take a few photos of it and I'll email them to you. If you wouldnt mind me having your email address, I'll sort it


    Thanks Russ, Billy

    Hi Russ, sorry I had to dash off last night, I felt a bit rude. I had to do an airport taxi run to Australia...no, the people were going to Australia...I only had to take them to Manchester Airport...and even THAT was too far for me old car.
    Catch up with ya soon Russ. Tata fer now, Billy

    Hi ya, Sorry I was a bit preoccupied when you came over to my car I was on a bit of a mission as everytime 'til then that I'd opened the bonnet it had chucked it down. It did again a few minutes later if I remember right. Shame as you were one of the folk that I was hoping to bump into...don't worry no particular reason, just think you'd be an interesting bloke to talk to...maybe next time. And thanks for the nice comments...Cheers for now, John.

    Hi Russ,

    Do you mind if I take a copy of your photo's (sam2581 etc in the Silverstone Classic Even folder) ?
    There's a lorry I did the signwriting on (Lyons' Tea). I haven't got any pics of it at shows etc.

    Regards,
    Ian

    Hi Russ, just idling on here and in the random photos' at the top I spot a '63 T-Bird. The reg' looked familiar so i checked my old photos', and yep, there she is! I pwned the car back in the very early '70's having got it in exchange for a bad debt from my mate. It was a champagne colour then.

    Where is it now?

    best regards, Jeff

    Hi ya mate, just thoroughly enjoyed the last hour or so spent looking through your Wheels Day pic's. Me and the missus were there again this year but only took a couple - 'hope you don't mind if I "borrow" some of yours to go on a Subaru forum that I frequent. Show 'em what proper cars look like. I shall let them know where the pic's came from...oh, and I think you must have snapped practically everything on that field and still avoided my truck! Cheers, and thanks for all the other pic's you post up, John.

    Hi Russ, Billy again. Just wondering, are you the same Russ that runs the randrhotrodimports site? If you are, I could do with a price for a couple of items on your site. If your not, I wonder if you know how much they are anyway? I'm after a price for the deep finned Rover V8 rocker covers. The sort of Chevy looky likey ones but will fit on a RV8 with no adaptors.
    Thanks Russ, BillyG

    Russ, sorry to bug you, but thought you might be the man to ask, rather than put it up on the open forum, have tried to put an order in to western star for some cd's, and am having trouble, have tried to e mail them, but that won't send, and i see there is no contact number, hoping its something i have done this end, as i am not trying to have a dig at western star, still hav'nt seen bob cruising it that truck, hoping to get up to the gig at prickwillow, cheers, andy

    Nice Camaro (the black one with white racing stripes) is it yours? I just bought one very similar, a 73 with the same grille, signals and split bumper only painted.

    Obviously your engine setup interests me HUGELY!

    Brilliant ride.

    Btw can you tell me how to post pics on Rods? It won't let me make a gallery that others can view it only let's me host some basic stuff.

    Can get ahold of an admin if you'd rather.

    Would love to hear about that Camaro.

    Cheers,
    David

    Hi Russ
    Just been looking through your pictures, fantastic many thanks for posting sooooo many pic's. I like the fact you take pic's of all types of cars regardless, I have missed going to rod runs and the Drags for a few years now, the only one I have got to was the street rod nats 2010 but after seeing your pics of the Hot Rod Drags I will absolutely have to go there this year.

    Many thanks again, John

    Hi Russ, I've sent Roadrunna a pm asking for help finding the whereabouts of the other Warp, not heard anything yet. But may have some luck, a friend of a friends sister in law, seems doomed from the start, works at the DVLA and may be able to help me out, fingers crossed. All the best Mark

    Hi Russ.
    Disc arrived, absolutley brilliant. That takes me way back and makes me feel really old, and why the hell its taken me so long to get racing seriously when I thought it was so easy back then.
    When I get the car back out youll have to come and have a beer with us.

    many thanks
    Paul.

    Hi Russ, here's those numbers 07976746492, this is Brian from Derby, really nice guy, I'm sure he would be able to help you out with a motor or complete car. Next is 01214455000 this is Ian Mumbersons old number, Paul is or was using it a couple of years ago. If for some reason you can't get an answer on this one let me know, one of my mates gets stuff off him regularly, so would have another number. If I hear of anything myself will let you know. All the best Mark
