muttley, do something!!

on the way back from the circuit, shinya's cortina wasn't in the good mood and finally it made a loud clang...so we took off the freeway and...

颯爽と緑カーに乗り込みサーキットを後にした木村氏だったが、突然不調を訴えるコルチーナ。騙し騙し行くしかない、とフリーウェイ爆走中についに金属を引きずる音が・・・

the exhaust pipe was coming off. no wonder.
 
あ、やっぱりエキパイが外れてるよ。

shinya took out some bolts and nuts from the interior and reconnected the exhaust. we really had a great time :)
 
色んな所からボルトとナットを集めて応急処置に励む木村氏。さすが、ハプニングに強い。こういうオチが必ず付いてくるから旧いクルマって楽しいのだ!

CooI the Kent engine.
I ask because I have a Lotus twin cam road engine for sale sat on my workshop floor! So if Shinya ever wants to up grade....

I had this exact problem on my Corolla couple years back, used a t-shirt to tie up the exhaust. Good times.
