Like the sinister backing music about halfway through, sounds like a Sweeney blag in progress.

After experiencing difficulty in obtaining RS body panels from my local Ford dealers I was directed to Withers of Winsford. Withers had by then moved to the Verdin Exchange in the town where I bought my original Ford inner/outer wings and front panel on 27/04/91. At that time I remember Cal saying that he was receiving them covered in dust now which indicated that they were reaching the bottom of the Ford pile for any future supply.
