Very few seem to want to get their hands dirty anymore (certainly not visiting an oily scrapyard !!  ) - preferring to sit and drink over-priced coffee in a retail park on a Sunday afternoon, before ordering home delivery take-away from their mobile in front of a telly that's bigger than their front room window

Been there and done that on a Cortina! A mate and myself fited a engine and gearbox in a Midget without a engine hoist the one weekend.
