Re: The O/T thread! Haha! I love docking about with oxy acetylene, I think it's the best toy ever invented!!
Harry, if you want a chuckle, search on YouTube for a guy called colinfurze. The home made wall of death and mobile food vending are my favourites...

Exactly, the perfect antidote for my work which has had it's happy atmosphere all but destroyed by the health and safety executive. Not completely, I still don't know where the lid of the kettle went since I 'descaled' it...

Re: The O/T thread! As requested, here are some pics of my '28 Model A Ford. These are actually the pics from the seller when I bought her in 2008, I imported her and drove her daily for about a year...not bad for an 80 year old. ..great fun, more stressful to handle and much heavier to handle than the 2cv and very thirsty......bulletproof simple engineering.  5,000,000 produced in 4 yrs production puts even the 2cv to shame, and spare availability is fantastic.

Re: The O/T thread! Seriously.......??? She would make tin foil out of a 2cv,  the panels are so heavy it is almost funny, (you can stand on top of the front wings) and the mechanicals are so basic you can't go wrong....instead of HT wires she has copper strips. If you don't break your 2cv then you'd be fine with an A, Cooling is the biggest issue I had, parking is a bitch too, I had arms like Swartzenegger after a year of it. Attachment:

P.S.-you can strip and rebuild the whole carb, clear the jets and have it back on the car in about 7 minutes too...
