Re: Work on van
The car restorer always uses the better stuff as when he did the rear end on the van a few months ago he put plenty of primer and paint on the van as I saw it in several stages as he was doing it as the workshop is only a mile from me.

Re: Other cars?
My other cars are a 1970 MG Midget, 2003 Mazda MX5 which was my dads car which I inherited from him last year and a 2019 Ford Fiesta. I have 1971 Morris van which I use sometimes to work.

Re: Work on van
My van has gone to the body shop today to have two new front wings fitted and a bit of welding done and the rest of the van re sprayed. Hopefully it will look better than it does now.

I was given an A35 van in 1996 which had been sitting in a shed since 1980 and all I did was put a battery on it and started first time.

Re: petrol pump paranoia?
I think the not the nine o clock news sketch was with Mel Smith and he's thought he's put £5 in and jumps by 1/2 pence and he's driving a mk1 Escort. It was quite a few years ago.
