What a great read,
I never knew there was an old caravan club and forum

You can use a rag/hankerchief, u wrap it around the opening of the clip like a horseshoe, and then pull back whilst just pulling on either end of the rag. Just be careful other wise you will find out why they're called a "Jesus" clip

I probably wouldn't be hitting 2 hammers together as they can shatter....not a good look.

Thats a myth, didnt they try this on Mythbusters and only succeeded on bending the handles?

$200, well done, wish my auctions would get results like that,

Hey Ken,great looking car.Is the floor mat original or have you found someone that does re-pros?Great colours.Jamie.

Hi Jamie
No the floor mat is just the black rubber repro, bought about 10 years ago, from an advert in Unique Cars.
Cheers ken

Hey i have a silly question, on  how to access the top of the rear shocky, to remove it?
I looked in the boot, removed the rear seat but still no luck. When looking underneath, there appears to be a plate that is tacked to the floor. Am i going crazy and have missed something so obvious. In the manual it says to just open up the trunk.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
This is the same colour sheme as mine, with the small stainless piece on the c pillar. I havent seen many cars around with this, none in the flesh. Is this style uncommon ?
