didn't know CM was still being published - spent many happy hours poring over those pages full of photostories of sparkling new bolts, subframes and engine parts - everything was so simple then  ;)

I have a box of 'Car Mechanics' somewhere from the 1960's and '70s.  Wonder if they're worth anything?? ::) ::) ::)

they should have some good articles -

"changing the brushes on your Dynamo"

"fitting new drum brake shoes and springs"

"repairing a split in a remould"

"how to find the engine in a foreign jobbie"


 ;)
