Hi to you all,
My name is Eus and live in the eastern part of Netherlands.
I own an Almond P6 3500 of 1971, since 2001.
Have used it for daily transportation for about 3 years which was too much work, and my car appeared to be too unreliable despite the good condition the car is in.
During the years, I have refurbished the engine bay, new wiring, painting, also overhauled front brake calipers with stainless steel pistons which I could have fabricated very cheap by a friend.
Last week I did the final big job, reconditioning dion tube and rear calipers.
Now I have a question which I will ask in the technical corner of this forum,
Besides my P6 we also own a Moto Guzzi V7 1970, 2 Yamaha's Virago XV920 of 1982 (one for me and one for my wife) and one XV750 to become a cafe racer in 2 years from now. Apart from the starter clutch, these Virago's are more or less bullet proof, and VERY cheap to buy and maintain.
In the past I owned a Volvo P1800ES, a lovely car but was in too bad shape to restore.
Hope to receive your technical advice in the future.

. I am glad you joined the forum. It is a shame your P6 did not work out as a daily driver. Could you maybe post some pictures of your P6 please?
