Now, if you thought the Maestro Clock was a bit too nice for your mantle piece than this could be the timepiece for you.

Want to open the bonnet and look at your washer bottle to find out the time?

Hands say it's ten-past- five but digits say twenty-past-four.  Which one is right?  Am I early or late???  

It's obviously faulty or needing reset or something. 

It's a no from me.

Anyway, hands say it's ten-past- five but digits say twenty-past-four.  It's obviously faulty or needing reset or something.  Which one is right?  Oh what confusion and anxiety that could create, am I early or late?

It's a no from me.

 

To the right person, the time is always 4:20

Ooooooh yeah!!!! 

And look at the seat headrests.  Like something from a dentist's surgery.

Some sort of conversion?  Maybe they're complete aftermarket seats as they don't quite match the rears.

Edit, apparently you could buy headrest kits which included a bracket to be fixed inside the seat to the metal seat frame once you took the back panel off, popular on Minis and Imps, etc.  You can buy modern retro period-looking kits for 1960s Mustangs.

The headrest is aftermarket, and fairly lethal in a crash. I remember my mum trying to get me to fit one that slipped over the backrest of the the lowback vinyl seats in my MK1 Fiesta. I chose to bin the seats and fit a set of buckets instead

With my plans for AllAggro air box 'mod'... and cool Oil Gauge coming along 😉

..... What Else 🤔

But of course DRL!!

*The #1 giffertastic bodgeration!

The 'Princess of Kowloon Unicorn Metal Folding Corp' dispatch dept is, as we speak, packaging my £6 pack of 'Two, SMD5050 x6 Strips'.

Legal position is fairly unequivocal "they go OFF when any car lamp switched ON"....= Ign. 'hot' & through a slave relay 'lights on/..off' will keep rozzers away.....

Move over ALDI 🔥😎

I bought this and don't remember why.

I remember getting it in the post and thinking 'what the fuck am I doing with my life?' 

Anyway, I gave the car to my son and he's dutifully done the windscreen in and abandoned it in a Hotwheels car park.

This looks delightfully lethal

A car battery charger made in Manchester that plugs into a light fitting (240v)

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Runbaken-Vintage-Car-Battery-Charger-no-2849/233908908885?hash=item36760eb355%3Ag%3ABNEAAOSwUNZgLZXA&LH_ItemCondition=3000

I can remember seeing an Iron that used to plug in the light fitting . Sounds like far too much current draw off that circuit to me

..... and the SECOND of the two I ordered has just plopped through the letterbox.

The guy was very good about it all.... agreeing his ad was misleading (TWO led...) written all over it, so sent this as 'goodwill' 😉

Some of these Chinese eBay companies have great names. I once bought a DVD box set of the entire James Bond collection from the Shanghai Golden scheming company. TBF they were top quality apart from two discs labelled in German.
