    558 comments today so far. That's a fair bit of work there, jacking point covers in my experience will be hardest to find, at least genuine ones. In fact I struggled to get them when I did all the RS cars in the mid 90s. You've brought back so many memories as it's what I did for a few years. God I want to do it again.
    All the very best you guys and keep it up, your doing great.😀😀😀

    Strike while the irons hot! If it was me I would keep it and do it up in the end. Perhaps you could even keep one in the end Rob? Don't get me wrong I know you guys do this for a living and time and space is money. Whatever you do good luck to you both 😊

    Some lovely ford's lads, the sierra cosworth, I would have loved to see that being put back to new, big following on the classic SAAB, would you ever consider getting one of those into the workshop?
    Great videos 👍
