    Funny you should say that Robert, my first thought too..........decided they looked rubbish. Can every body give the guy a break and refrain from mentioning anti fowling paint finishes.

    As the headlamp guards on Forceful have been repaired loads of times now I decided to make a new Sumo pair, as per original pattern but slightly wider steel with thicker non bendy mounting plates. This gives more clearance behind for the lamps so should be better protection, but it's hard to spot the difference. Strangely a Scammell gear makes the perfect former for the radius....:idea: Just need a couple of bits of that tread strip stuff to finish them. Just proves the old saying, "It's a Fowl(er) wind that blows no good"....:-D

    Sorry never caught his name. I have seen somewhere a warning to deflate divided rim tyres before removing wheels and to only fully inflate when fitted back on the vehicle, good safety practice.

    We thought it was a bit dodgy after the last time when airliners where being lit up. Amazing effect when parallel beam seemed to curve over head, at low elevation, thought it was my Varyfocals till Tina commented on it as well.

Bet those drawings where drawn by a totally impractical person, I would like to see the detail for how you join a wriggley tin trough to a wriggley tin pipe, maybe use the old grease?
