Hi everyone. I reside up in the Great White North here in Alberta. Winters are cold, the garage is unheated, local parts supply is almost non-existent as is guidance/mentorship/help! In spite of this, I own 3 particularly ratty looking Spitfires (Mk 1, 2 & 3) and an even rougher BL Mini. None are drivers! But I can't allow them to be wrecked...foolish really. Anyway, I am particularly busy at work (faculty member/researcher), so the time I can allocate to mucking about with them isn't huge. Oh, and I have 6 grown/semi-grown kids who are all somewhat still 'dependent'...with this many kids and cars and as a former manager told me, 'You'll die poor.' No biggie, at least I'm happy. The weather here is presently -6 deg. C, but I'll be out there later today.
 
welcome and yes you have a a loooong winter to work on them. :D

Welcome to the BCF! I think you must have sent some of your weather down here to New Mexico. We had close to 20 inches of white stuff yesterday!
