Introductions

Here's the place to chat about all things classic. Also includes a feedback forum where you can communicate directly with the editorial team - don't hold back, they'd love to know what they're doing right (or wrong of course!)

Some people are like Slinkies - they serve no useful purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them downstairs.

I stand 6ft4inches and displace the same amount of bathwatter as a 22stone bag of potatos.

Think its the Big Ben part of parliment he John was aiming his wit at.

Big Ben isn't the clock tower and it isn't the clock - it's the name of the bell itself.

Sorry - just being a smart-ass as usual.....

Sorry Rick, yes, Ben is correct and yet again I appear to have caused confusion and bewilderment. :oops:

He is one heck of a solidly built chap though. :)

Confused yet?

If you're new to the Practical Classics forum put a few lines in here to say who you are and what you're driving at the moment.
Hi all, I'm a newbie and i'm just restarting (after a pause of more years than I care to think about) the restoration of my Mk2 Zodiac. Got to takle the offside sill and jacking point first, I see "Expressed Steel" do replacement jacking points, anyone know if they are decent fit ? Anyway, I've spent the years when nothing was happening regarding actually working on the car, collecting spares so I hope not to have to spend TOO much cash now, but I know I'll be spending plenty of time, still at least our fantastic government are making sure I have LOADS of time to spare with the way work is going at present (I'm in the building trade).
Regards to all,Pete.
