Garibaldis - my old mum's favourites!

I've twice used accusparks, one on an mgb and other on an early mk2 golf and in both cases I took my time fitting them and they worked well for ages - no problems. I've dug out Accuspark's own fitting instructions and if these were followed to the letter. I 'm sure there would be less failures. Afte...

I would normally agree about Americans on You Tube and the like but I came across one recently that is actually humerous and his fauly diagnosis is very clever. SouthMainAuto repairs. Eric O and his wife run a ''shop'' repairing vehicles and his fault diagnosis is very clever. I suggest you watch a...

I'm going off Hubnut as, since he's been with that squeeky little fiance (wife?) of his, the program has become far too PC for me and my not very delicate constitution.

He is a huge celebrity in motor vehicle youtube shows.

Thank goodness they didn't supply toilet roll on the same principal! Mind you it was probably Izal toilet paper any way.

I started watching this a few years ago but I soon went off it. Don't watch many American shows at all.

I wouldn't buy anything Drew Prickhard had been involved in.

That is an absolute top job Nick, Mike has done a beautiful job. I may contact him in the future to repair my Carla recaros which just need a repair on the black cloth of the driver's backrest and the piping redone on both fronts.

Dan I would love to own one of the 32/36 inlet manifolds please.

I used to get marched up the stairs by mum then put over her bed and I got 3 of the best from her slipper. Dad once took his belt off to me when I had been particularly naughty. I still loved and respected both of them until their dying days and I thank them for giving me a wonderful childhood and t...

I remember that for MGBs, Mercs and several other vehicles you used to be able to get a stick on walnut veneer or carbon fibre look dash vinyl but cant seem to find anyone who does one for a Capri. I also have a good dash with its clips etc still intact and would love to get something to do the same...

Mine;s still bug-gering about just like Andy's was despite me upgrading to windows 3.1.1

I'm having the exact same problem - litle circles everywhere!

Happy Birthday Dan, have a good one.

I remember it well

9 years on many have come and gone but still a great forum!

I ve just checked and I've been on here for over 8 years. Where does the time go? Mind you Andy you're on 8000 posts and I'm somewhat lagging on 1800!

If it's standard solid black then regular two pack is usually good enough. As for getting a repaint at a cheap price I would invest in a compressor, spraygun and good mask if I were you. I see you own a Robin Hood. I built one myself about 20 years ago but had to sell it in 2019 as i got too fat to ...

If these cretins do work out what there genitals are for and have children, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxqvwkmTNy8

It seems a large percentage of them use their genitals to bugger each other if you go by the amount of deviance on the telly.

What is the most worrying thing Andrew is that these cretins have the vote and are able to breed. I'm glad I'm old and decrepit.

I can answer this on Danny's behalf - yes it is a seat mounting area. Common Ford problem.
