Yup, that's the stuff I used to trim out the back of my Transit. Sticks like the proverbial.

I used to do the gearbox rebuilds on the dining room table 😂 Needless to say, we lost our deposit when we moved out 😂

dodgy connection in the bulb holder/connector?

Allo John gotta new motor Seriously mucker, welcome and very tidy looking Tina

How about these on the bay at the moment? Ford Oval

Watched it on Iplayer the other day, a really fitting tribute to her, but very sad obviously. Were some good funny bits in it though as she had a wicked sense of humour. One great bit was when she made Evans puke up . Hadn't seen that before.

Looks like a fairly good base to start with Mate. Look forward to watching how you get on

I was thinking more of the fuel element JB rather than the electrics which are not too bad provided it's not an electric/hybrid 😲 Haven't had to attend a serious RTC involving a hybrid/electric yet, but it's worrying from our point of view, especially if we're cutting people out 😕 Agreed CO2 is best provided you don't inhale, but they do tend to be a bit bigger and heavier for car use.

Getting out is always the best option, but, having said that, I once had a fire under the bonnet in one of my old mk1s caused by a broken(and brand new) jubilee clip on a fuel line. Pulled in to the pub car park, which was really handy, and stuck a really small and half used bcf extinguisher up from under the front valance and used it all up AND put it out! wiring was a bit singed but still OK. Put a spare clip on it and carried n to work 😌 So, I guess if you're out, having a go is better than ending up with a burnt out wreck, especially if you've sweat tears and blood into building it..... BCF wasn't illegal in those days

Got some of these for my cars. they do 1 L ones as well... AFFF extinguisher

Not sure about the Lotus Cortina either. Why would you go to the incredible trouble of doing a restore like that(difficult to say how good the body is from the pictures mind) and then paint in Alan Mann colours instead of the original white and green? RS2000 doesn't appear to have genuine wheels either. Have they just not bothered to register the engine change, or even worse, stamped a new number on it?😲

Aye, screws tend to get corroded in over time so as they can't go anywhere, I always used to leave mine off.

Cracking little film !

Gone far too early Awesome driver and a gorgeous doris too! So sad.
