| Don't polish it, DRIVE IT | contacts I don't know if this is of any use, as most members of this forum appear to want their cars to go fast and look pretty. I don't have a problem with that as , hundreds of years ago, I was young too and took part in many an (iffy) drag/street race. However, I'm now old and 'respectible'(?) and think that the following might be usefull: I've just bought two wonderful electric winches from www.c-n-buy.com for our two off-roaders. They will take 2000lb and are so cheap as to be practically free ! Also....are you all familiar with PARLIAMO ? It's the official magazine of Fiat Motor Club (GB) and is well worth looking at..........[?] HHmmmmmmm

| Don't polish it, DRIVE IT | Hi Jaff............where's my 80p ?!? [}:)] The winches that I've bought are £68 each (+vat) and are superb. To fit them I'm fixing a section of footplate steel to the bullbar light fittings and back to a bar fixed between the wings, running just in front of the radiator. They come with a neat hand-held control unit. I intend to cut it's wires and fit a weatherproof socket to the car (s) to take a plug fitted to the unit (s). Should work.......If you don't hear from me again: it didn't !|) HHmmmmmmm
