Useless, I dont think so, The young drivers today wont have a clue about Oil over vacum, Or the more modern Hydrovac system, I love to hear all this old talk about the good old white knuckle days going over Shap & Standedge & The Valleys in South Wales with the Old Atki the I drove in the late 50s, I had some hair raising moments I may tell you, The brakes were ■■■■■ , Even at 32 MPH Top speed, But im still here to tell the story :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: , Regards Larry.
