Yes, the response was almost instant (it was a week day) the parts arrived 2 or 3 days later.
You request the items, they respond with a total price and an attachment to explain how to pay, I used paypal, it all went smoothly.
I know it does not answer your question but these people:

are trading as I used them a month ago.
Not sure where they are though.
This is reaching way back, I had a working one of these many years ago, it came with a "Zamboni pile". After a few years knocking around it no longer worked so I took the piles (3 of them in clear plastic tubes) out of the casing to have a look, turned out they are just multicell batteries with hundreds of cells a few thou thick. Thousands of volts at micro amps.
When I purchased mine Warco were the cheapest. I have always assumed they all came out of the same Chinese factory but in different colours. Mine needed some fettling to get it to a good standard for use but a very good tool for the price.
Nice to see it all coming together, keep the reports coming
A bunch of Merlins heard as they went past, 1 spit seen doing a couple of circuits around RAF Headley court (I work overlooking said establishment)... A good day in the woods!
Hi, I hope this helps

Is that the one that was used to rescue skip lorries from the Betchworth land fill site?
I saw it many years ago, land fill site is now one of our nature reserves.
I struck lucky many years ago when a company decided to dispose of its optical pyrometers and I "inherited" one:)
A very useful non contact method of taking the guesswork out of red heat temperature checking.
If you have never come across one it is basically a light bulb filament in a low power telescope and a variable resistor with a temperature scale around the knob.
Look down the tube and turn up the power to the filament until it disappears/is the same colour as the hot surface. You then just read off the temperature on the scale.
This is still one of my favorite threads, keep up the good work!
The wiring insulation can get a bit crispy as well, wires that cross from the chassis/body to the engine need to be inspected.
As tony said, the baulkhead, especially between the windscreen and the vents and the A pillars. The footwells are relatively easy to replace.
As I now live 5 miles, as the crow flies, from Capel I will have little excuse not to come along
I just wish I still had something green to bring along.
Tank (Cent/Chali/chiefi or of that ilk) on a transporter trying to get round a parked dust cart in Pirbright, (Dust cart drove off as the transporter pulled out to pass) I didn't mind reversing to get out of the way though.
