Re: rear lights/indicators in a pre '62
however, the trafficators would still be working in tandem, and this is the prototypical standard, and therefore i would dispute this by saying that any flashers at all are an improvement... Yes, true. Just a case of being sensible. If you can partition the lens it shouldn't be an issue. Have you t...

Re: rear lights/indicators in a pre '62
thanks for thr reply. in that case, i may be able to put a separater in ther somewhere - or an interupter in the brake light circuit as in the transition cars (flashing sidelights) If you were found to have modified your vehicle in such a way as to make it less safe or less visible than its prototyp...

I have ideas for the front, using the sidelight with an orange...

Re: Welding Gas - Can anyone help? :D
I use a hobbyweld bottle. look for your local surplier. It's a £60 deposit, if i recall, 80% of which you get back if you decide to give up welding, then £39.99 each time you need it filling up. \It's a 9l bottle.

Re: '69 traveller rebuild
6 hours after going into a&e I'm finally Home.
Apparently I was very lucky. The x Ray showed . Was only a couple of mm away from hitting bone.
Have had a jab, a clean up and have a plastics appointment on Tuesday.
The joys of classic motoring!
