Hi Seth 70,
I saw the video.i bet they are changing the clutch on that fh right now! This firm had some proper drivers,Cardiff transport to me always seemed to be carrying more than most of the others and doing a lot more mileage that was the job 20 years ago,arguably the fh bridge photo shows were thejob is now…

I was a bit suprised to see their idea of getting it out was to thrash hell out of the fh ,if they moved the o/s wind deflector that would have screwed round
