Re: Empress being Banger raced ?
I think the "why do they do it?" is answered by this thread's number of views - 600 odd; people are fascinated by this kind of destruction, love it or hate it you'll watch it. I guess it's the literal definition of "car crash TV" Is it a worse end than being buried under a rocker...

Re: The problem with Majestic Major restoration
Thanks for the reply Nick, I've got it working again now. There's a little moving core which is activated when a current is passed through the outer coil, the core sits in a close fitting tube and quickly becomes seized therein.

Re: Lanchester LD10 chrome trim clips
Don't know about the LD10 specifically, but check out the Bresco website.
