So that's what they dress like in Essex. In next week's edition "How to apply Go Faster stripes." Luckily I am unable to show this morning's workshop costume, but with this year's first light dusting of snow on the top of Welsh hills, it has many more layers than the Ford strangler is wearing.

Not too sure about the game of "Jenga" going on with the engine block ! At least the car is on axle stands and not a wobbly old bit of tree trunk.

Eeeek 

Elf and safety would have a field day.

No eye protection 

Gloves

And that tie just ready to get entangled with the drill or lathe

No 3 cylinder seems to be missing the inlet valve spring.

Trust David to notice that! Well done. It also appears that he's also broken some inlet manifold studs.
