I like to roast my own coffee beans. I buy the green unroasted beans online and roast them to my liking using a hot air popcorn popper. Pretty easy to do. It creates a lot of smoke so I do it outdoors. Here's my crude setup.

That looks great! There appears to be a little bit of early Aston Martin DB4 in there.

I had a rubber-bumper MGB a million years ago - a really fun little car! Never had a Triumph of any kind but would like a Triumph bike.

I had a Datsun  240 Z.  Bright Orange,  Fun Ass Car.

Awesome!  Love me some old Triumph!
My first car was a TR4A.  Followed by a TR6.  
Always wanted to drop a mazda rotary in one of those!  That would be FUN!

Thanks. It has a beefed up TR6 engine/transmission in it so she's a bit of a hot rod. All kinds of fun to drive except, like a motorcycle, you have to watch out for cars not seeing you. 
Rotaries go right in but are getting rare. The hot ticket these days is a Honda or Toyota 4. But then you lose that silky smooth straight six feel. There are even some motorcycle engines and I know of at least one snowmobile engine being put in these.
