Another kit that sits in a healthy position is the Karma by RW Kit Cars of Melton Mowbray. The company was run by skilled fibreglass laminator, Roger Woolley, who back in the eighties also ran an egg business and he’d make his deliveries in his Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. A proper More >
LEATHER SUPREMO
Feb 21st
In classic car circles, one of the best-known coachtrimming companies is O’Rourke Coachtrimmers & Supplies, based in West Sussex.
The company has just released their own range of leather-related treatments and cleaners. Initially, I thought that they were just ‘badge-engineered’ products. Other people’s stuff with their labels on.
Wrong actually. They have devised this stuff to their own formulations and put their name to them because they think they work better than anything else around.
The products are available separately or best-value is a Leather Care Bundle at £74.95 which includes 1 x 500ml Leather Cleaner, 1 x 200ml Leather Balm, 1 x More >

ALL-CARB DIET FROM EDELBROCK
Feb 14th
Edelbrock’s 650cfm AVS2 carburettors now have a little brother. The 500cfm AVS2 carburettors are ideal for street rods, classic trucks, and other vehicles with stock or mildly upgraded small block V8s. Edelbrock also makes this pre-calibrated, especially for dual quad setups.
If you’ve got something a little gnarlier, the 650cfm AVS2 is for you, say Summit Racing. They are recommended for small and big block V8s with dual or single plane intake manifolds.
All AVS2 carburettors have many of the features of the Performer and first-gen AVS models – a two-piece, all-aluminium construction for cooler operating temperatures and less warping; no gaskets More >
