This ad has attracted much attention out in the real world as well as on the forum. Draylon has a reputation for inflammability, a pal rang me up to ask if I would look it up to see if it was a banned substance. So I can report that the index to the Blue Book, between Drag Racing and Drink & Drugs, makes no mention of Draylon. So future Meashams might still see LEDs banned but Draylon interiors approved. I really must get one of those television machines to allow me to watch Songs of Praise or snooker on a Sunday evening.

Why does the wiring on a lot of "restored"
Car always look like a rats nest?
My problem I ask questions that other people don't like?
Like have you got that for an investment or for fun?

Rat's nests are my pet aversion too, they are the first thing I remove, (along with the deceased) when a new car comes into the workshop.
On my own car nests of the wiring kind are first to be attended.
I did once do an interior for a customer after the fashion of the subject Austin. That featured scene tapestries, cabriol armrests, lace quarter mirrors and an Aubusson rug cut down to fit. We deleted the cherubs. Yes it had DRAYLON headliner, no not a seven but a Unic.

I was told that it looked like the inside of a New Orleans undertakers, I didn't ask about that either.
