    I can see why you say that Catman, but after I restored my old '71
    2000GTV I ran it every day to work for about 7 years. Mind you you
    have to keep on top of them to keep them tip top.

    I hear what you're saying but for me
    1) I got a bit tired of my cars fialing the MOT every year for tin worm
    2) These things are getting rare. Seems a shame to run it into the ground
