Hence the asking price. Yes, there are cheaper examples out there.

You get what you pay for.
I don’t need to google it as it happens as I read it and found it so interesting I read it a second time! Yes a very interesting article! I like the way you mentioned that you were changing the gearoil and adding stop slip and it went on for a long time like that, probably long enough for the average person to finish up with the car!

I suppose the nature of your work means warmed up vehicle that’s driven reasonably sympathetically!

Good work on the original one!
