Re: Parking for Goodwood Breakfast club classic car meet
I went a few years ago in my MGA, having registered it (and apparently having been 'selected' for the event). I arrived early and was parked in one of the team shelters infield. Those arriving later - and pre-registered - were parked on the track either side of the Pits. It may have changed since th...

Re: Removing Wiring Loom
Because I was replacing my loom, and I guessed that there might be a while between removing the old and fitting the new loom, I left an inch or so of the old wire on each instrument, light and fitting. It gave me a double check that I was fitting the correct wires to each when the inevitable delay m...

Re: CJ Autos vehicle lift/tilter
I have one and have used it successfully. It was a fiddle to set it up properly but good to jack up front or back. I used it while working on the brakes. It was a while ago and I regret that I can't remember whether it is set up on a wide setting. it is currently under my Traveller, awaiting labour...

Re: Rare Standard model on eBay
I had a sheep jump over a wall in Cumbria and even though my Minor Ser 2 was fitted with Marina disc brakes and wheels I could not pull up quick enough. Those Cumbrian sheep must be tough as it got up and jumped back over the wall and disappeared. The Minor had a broken headlight and dented wing. I...

Re: Electrical Gremlins become too often
When I changed my loom, I followed a tip from an old hand: having disconnected battery, I cut the loom leaving a couple of inches attached to each instrument or fitting. This made identifying which wire went where much easier than following a far-too-small wiring diagram. I accept that this might no...

Re: Tin opener.
Issued with every box of Army compo rations 1960-1990 at least. Folds up, too. But it is - like many tin-openers - right-handed.
