Being born a stones row from their factory, spending nearly 15 years as a volunteer at he Black Country Museum on the trolleybuses, being a sad individual who has no life apart from learning all there is to know about bus and coach history....

You know, stuff like that.

No shit Sherlock.  Feathers in our cap was because of their cast radiator mascot and vive versa. (Fucking logo - what era do you think it is, the modern day?)

Whatever. If it makes you feel superior…

Interesting top comment on YT

The first half is for anyone who had a car poster from Athena in the 80s.  The second half is basically taunting @Cavcraft with all the Iveco action

Ginger Baker buys a Range Rover and drives to Africa to refine his drumming skills. I'm surprised that he didn't just get his Jensen FF lifted and fitted with off road tyres.

Unboxing A $4000 Chinese Range Rover.

It is a bit more than an unboxing.

Found this recently uploaded;  It's called "Odd Jobs" presented by a "Nick Cotton" looking character called Colin Cobb and presenting about 5 minutes of how to look for faults on a non-starting Triumph. Brought to you, apparently by "Sunrise Motors (Hayes)" who apparently still around!

Just watched that before what I posted above. I've never seen or heard William Wollard so young. It was filmed in 1971.

It was mandatory viewing in our house, no doubt viewed as 'proper educational'* TV unlike, say, On The Buses. 
Baxter & Burke (referred to as a 'right Burke, hohoho') by my Dad were the mainstay until Woolard, Rodd & Philbin rocked up, I always thought Woolard better on Top Gear than he was on TW.
Baxter was an interesting cove - checkout his history - he quit TW after a row with the producer - bit like Clarkson and Top Gear without the fisticuffs

*(The World About Us on BBC2 came on around 7pm (ish) on a Sunday and we were allowed to stay up late provided we had bathed/showered and were ready for bed with schoolbags packed - god, we were boring little automatons )

OK YouTube: No doubt this guy is well known to AS peeps but I've never come across him (probably as I usually avoid YouTube like The Plague but, seeing as Mrs. EWS has The Plague I seem to have free time after dark).
Odd little funny thing he says but I just watched to see how effing complicated could they make a big diesel. Very.

p.s. I'm not a huge H&S nazi but that guy's beard near rotating tools gave me the willies - wonder if he wraps it when working on a working engine?

 

[somewhatfoolish]

What's the beard equivalent of scalping? I'm reminded of a terrible elf'n'safety video nasty I was shown a long time ago; Karl Howman/Jacko from Brush Strokes was a lairy apprentice type in a machine shop, long hair, boilersuit open to the waist exposing his typically 70s british physique(racing whippet, pigeon chest, pale and uninteresting) and a comedy medallion, he comes to grief while operating a lathe and loses his hair.
