Sounds like my 1950's garage. Fat fenders & split windscreens. Your Austin looks in good nick.

Yeah the truck is in great nic, I got her going the other day, engine just needs the usual, plug, points, leads. Ill be changing the fuel and put another lot of oil in before i start it again. Its a very nice old truck with minimal rust that's for sure.

Hey fellas just an update on my own restoration, I think some of you know that I have had a rough trot when i was a kid with the lungs collapsing etc, well I started fainting and carrying on recently causing me to knock myself out a few times. Anyway, went to a cardiologist in Radelaide last week. After many tests and 24 hour monitors, it was found that I have Postural orthostatic tackycardia syndrome/neurally mediated syncope maybe damage caused most likely when I was a teenager during my lung reduction surgeries for the emphysema. So basically my hearts accellerator gets stuck, either too slow, like 37-47 beats, or too fast, it also controls bladder and many other functions. So I am now medicated and they finally got the bp (boost pressure Pete) under control, but the bloody hear rate still slips into the low forties high 30's at night and skips beats etc. Anyway, at least now with my heart monitor at home I can control it. Basically everytime i stand my heart rate goes up 30 to 60 beats.
