Re: R.I.P. Lord Montagu
We seem to have missed Lord Montagu of Beaulieu.

A man worthy of mention if ever there was one.

Note from Admin: sadly Jon passed away in February 2018 but his humour and wealth of knowledge will be fondly remembered by all. RIP Jonners.

When transporting it, it was the first dolomite for me that had the ropes through the car with the windows open. The subframe and rearaxle are not attached anymore to the car.

Re: R.I.P. Patrick Macnee
It is disheartening to hear of household names passing away.
But the dolly pictures are cringe worthy.
Front and rear screens look intact though.
