Love this quote that a mate in Australia sent me quoting an old time mechanic ... "MO"
An old mechanic once told me that if an English Car was not driping oil it was out of oil, if it didn't smell like petrol it was out of juice and if it was not boiling there was no water in the radiator ( Aust climate only) _________________ A vehicle can be restored at any time, But is original only once ! |

Herehere, sounds just like my Commer ute on a mid 30 degree February day Downunder. Many a true word are spoken in jest.  |

It's all a matter of degrees - and which kind!
