I know a ford dealer who has a barn full of old fords from sports models to basic models Including at least two never welded lotus cortina, an rs500 with under fifty k on the clock, blue RS focus with about 15 miles on the clock that have been built up by putting it on to a car transporter each year for an annual service and now mot. A couple of newer rs focus with minimal miles of and two ford gt!
The owner doesn’t need to or want to sell but is in to his 70s now so they will get sold at some point , also has spare parts for most of them along with all sorts of other cars and exotics oh and a tractor or two

I used to deal with the brother of the guy that owns KGF, he would go around main dealers and buy the cheap px cars off them and then do minor work and sell for a few k more. The guy would often turn up in ONE of his fleet of exotic Italian cars, with the cash for his deals in an envelope inside a batterd old brief case
The family have money and used to run a very successful restaurant and a theatre 🎭 along with a few other not so legit businesses

That looks more like a chemical such as TFR has been used to clean and not been washed off properly . A machine polish might get it out

Look at Tamworth powder coating , very well regarded in the BMW world and not a bad price

Hi guys, Although I won’t be doing the trip in a retro I am taking my modern Alfa Romeo across Europe next week, the route takes me via Reims and as such I would like to visit the historic grand prix bits that remain . Can any supply me with the area of Reims I should be looking for? French postal code etc would be great to punch in to the nav
Also hoping to visit Monaco whilst there to see the Grand Prix track , lack of planning means I’ll not be able to watch the races though

That is rancid, going to take quite a bit of flushing. Are new tanks available for these? Might be worth biting the bullet if so otherwise it might come back again in a year or two. frost used to do a paint / sealant that you could put in to the tank swill it around a bit abs it coated the inside of the tank Not sure how good it is or even if it’s still available

Ta, might have to do that, biggest issue is it's my daily! 🤔 Had another go at it yesterday, I've stopped the leaks currently, but there's obviously still more pressure there than there should be where are you based? I know of a couple of places around Cambridgeshire / Northamptonshire that do testing with a fairly quick turn around
