The last time I saw the Copart listing the price was £450 but it must have gone for something slightly higher. Has the chap realised what he's bought and come to the conclusion that it's more than he can deal with? I would hate one of the banger racers to buy it.

Identity checks

It seems there isn't a level playing field with auction houses. Some require an ID proof if bidding over a certain amount, Brightwells don't want any, or appear not to, yet recently I have been asked for photo ID if I want to bid over £6,500 by another auction site.

Re: Antifreeze

Following Richard's excellent advice I visited the Halfords website. Hmm. Enter reg it said and I typed it the one for my older vehicle which is one prefix, three numbers and three letters.

Antifreeze

I am sure this has been discussed before but which is the best antifreeze for our cars? All my cars have cast iron heads but one is 2011 and I sure there is a different specification for that from the ones in the 1950s.

Majestic engine and autobox wanted

Does anyone know of a Majestic engine and automatic gearbox that might be for sale? I have a project in mind. If there are the various linkages available that would be even better.

Regency

Some years ago there was a chap at the National Rally who had two Regencies languishing at his property. All I can recall was that he lived in Wales. Tall chap with black hair. Is he on this forum?
