Re: chassis tilter

Waking up a 8 year old post :D :lol: If you have so much welding to do,best have it on a spit/rotisserie. Of course you'll have to remove the engine/gearbox/fuel tank which is best being flammable. The spit is best for welding downwards as appose to awkward angles.

Extinction Rebellion/Insulate Britain

a concern if you drive a Classic and participate in Classic car shows. We have seen the Eco zealots like Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain blocking roads. I predict that these mobs may well target Classic car shows in years to come

Cutting glass?

Hello fellow enthusiasts. A good while back I smashed the rear side window on my 3dr shell Sierra :oops: getting another will be difficult as they are rare. It has crossed my mind to cut out the needed shape from a minibus side window. Anyone had the experience of cutting glass?
Thanks
Paul

Re: Multiple Classic car insurance

Don't understand what you mean by "The premium for the Capri has stopped" Probably not the best wording....the policy of the Capri has stopped at the same time as the Cortina,even though the Capri policy ends in December Are they still taking payments out of your account?
