Theres an article in the new PC mag about cars with the same platform, featuring, HB GT, Magnum, Ventora, Healy, Lima. With thanks to the Viva Drivers Club. They also had a letter published in the last issue of Classics Monthly(Spring). They seem to be doing quite well for them selves. :D

Not a bad article, anything to do with viva's makes a welcome change, although describing an HB GT as a -dainty period piece- had me scratching my head a little!

Theres also an article on rebuilding a Stromberg 150 carb, would it be worth it to ask if we could reprint the article in the club mag? :?:

I would think they'd want to wait for that until it's not the current issue.

Nice to see a Sportshatch out there.

They forgot to mention the slant4 HC's as everyone always does.

You don't have to buy a snoot to get 2300cc madness :D
