    Sunday afternoon tinkering with old cars...you can't beat it. There was a time, a generation or so ago when you'd see plenty of fellas tinkering with their cars at the weekend. Sadly a dying trend. A lot of the young kids can't even change a wheel or headlight bulb...lol
    Another great and useful video Martin. Thanks

    always best to tidy up under the parts where you can't see saves time in the long run on costly repairs. whenever we strip down old cars that are scrap I always keep the screws and bolts etc they always come in useful when someone else has put the wrong parts back in a repair. Great video as always Martin hope you can film Jimmy painting the bumper repair Rob

    Nice job Martin, I think I'll have my bumpers and side skirts off my focus st and my mrs zafira gsi this summer. I have a quick question, I've bought a 2013 Yamaha Neos easy 50cc and the exhaust has another pipe coming off that goes to a rubber pipe which disappears under the seat. I think its something to do with emissions. Can this be deleted to run a sports exhaust system 🤔 any help will be appreciated 🙏 👍
