This is mine and has been for some time. Needs a new photo I reckon. (FYI it's my bro and my youngest daughter)


carcentric - 1/1/05 at 05:21 PM

This is my desktop - it reminds me I should be out in the shop working on these projects:



Clockwise from the top:
1) 1972 MBenz 350SL with 5.6 engine (Ludwig)
2) 1971 Burlington Arrow (Oblio)
3) 1979 Honda CX500 Custom trike (Roxinante)
4) 1950 Morris Minor street rod with 2.8 V6 (Moe)
They're all detailed at the website shown.

A prosperous New Year to y'all.

Mine are all under a shortcut on the desktop called shortcuts.

Ok chaps - so how do you do a screen grab?

Hippy - one of my all time favourite games - must drag it out for another play soon......

[Edited on 3/1/05 by Jasper]


phelpsa - 3/1/05 at 12:24 PM

<Control>< Print Screen>.

Then paste it into paint some program like that.

Adam


Jasper - 3/1/05 at 01:31 PM

Doesn't seem to work on my laptop hit the 'Fn' & Prnt Scrn' buttons and nothing happens......


Metal Hippy - 3/1/05 at 02:33 PM

Don't press Control... Just Print Screen should do it...

Jasper, let me know if you get Wolf up and running again... I'll be back in the land of broadband finally after moving in August... 5 weeks to go then I'll be back playing Wolf with my clan..


Jasper - 3/1/05 at 04:30 PM

Hippy - gotta wait till I'm set up in the new office as well, so it will be a few weeks for me. Never played online - just the regular game. I presume we are talking about the same one that came out a few years ago? There hasn't been a newer version since?

I did like the GTM libra, and my dad would have bought one for me to build if it could be his. FAT CHANCE

Isn't there one being built with a Honda V-TEC engine of some sort in it?

One was built with the Vtec a couple of years ago and the factory now offer it as an option, but 'K' Power is best.
Remote thermostat, steel head dowels and it's a lovely light powerful engine. Great noise too!!

I've done the print screen, saved it in paint form, so how do I attach the image to the post? The attachment thing doesn't seem to work!

Cheers,

Andy.

Click on:' Photo Archive' at the top of the page then on your name and you should be able to upload it to your archive.

Then open it and right click it and 'Copy' it's location.

Then, in the post reply click on the yellow icon to the right of the 'Outlook express (?)' icon and paste your location into the box that pops up.

That's how I did it....there's probably an easier way!!!


phelpsa - 4/1/05 at 11:50 AM

You've saved it as a bitmap, which LB doesn't like. When you click save you have to save it as a jpeg or gif file.

It's all very complicated but can be useful.

phelpsa - 4/1/05 at 03:15 PM

That looks like a mallock.

Adam


andylancaster3000 - 4/1/05 at 03:40 PM

Similar type of car to a mallock. As you have probably guessed its called an IJAL, after the people who designed, built and raced it (Ian Johnson and Alan Lancaster) one of whom is my father.

Whats it used for, Hillclimbing, Circuit racing?

Adam


andylancaster3000 - 4/1/05 at 04:17 PM

The Mk1 version was circuit raced for about 5 years in the 750MC F1300 championship until a nasty prang at copse, Silverstone in 95. Then the MK2, the desktop picture, was finished mid 98 and raced until the 2000 when F1300 died. Then 2002 doing classic clubmans and sold in 2003.

(my 100th post!)

phelpsa - 4/1/05 at 04:23 PM

So, the Locost to replace it?

Adam


andylancaster3000 - 4/1/05 at 04:41 PM

Thats the idea yeah, but dad and I are still having lengthy discusions about what we want to build. I'd like a BEC but he's a little anti BEC for some reason... I quite like the idea of putting a bike engine in the back of another IJAL. Considering that with a full race crossflow it only weighed 370Kg, I think it would work quite well, especially as a hillclimb car!

Andy


phelpsa - 4/1/05 at 04:43 PM

Yep, definately.

BEC hillclmb Mallocks go like sh*t off a shovel.

Remember that Mallock used to produce a front-engined, RWD 2-seater, space-framed sports racer. It was known as a U2 (as in "U2 can have a car like this" ).
Since it had a layout very similar to the Chapman 6/7 design, it could have been a source of inspiration for El Ron. Maybe?

Anybody got any pics of an old U2? (The Mallock, not the Gary Powers craft).

Its the first picture i took where i managed to get the shutter speed right to capture the water in the right way

I've come across a lot of mallocks over the years but never a U2. It looks like a very early mallock. Here is a link to a site Ihave just found:
