Another instance was when completing a detailed authentic looking Cobra, as he strived for --he obliged some visitors, who called in to inspect progress with a first start up -- hit the ignition, the engine promptly burst into life and began its journey through the brick wall in the back of the garage.......
For this effort he was awarded the "Dipstick of the Year" award...
a very well made trophy,( By Don Pilling I think ?).... polished timber backing complete with engraved plaque, and chrome dip stick .
He later passed this on to me for doing the same silly thing a few years later...
My favourite trophy.
A good bloke...he'll be missed by many.
