Bongo elevating roof for sale on e-bay.

If anyone with a tintop is looking for an elevating roof there is one on e-bay. It is local to me so I would be happy to check it out if anyone is interested. They do say "will wrap if want to send courier or email with post code for price". http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/mazda-bongo-roof-/3008...

Re: Firth of Forth

Now here is an idea. Make the letter or figure 10 in Bongo's. Then find a high vantage point to take a photo. A basic figure 10 would take 5 Bongo's. A basic letter TEN would take 8 Bongo's and a Jeep (if we could find one).

The video convinced me it was what I wanted. Other suppliers might use a similar system.

Re: South queens ferry

Passed SQ at 10.30 this morning and it was tipping it down. On the way back 12.30 it was
bathed in sunshine. Hope that it continues for you. Count me in for 2 and will plan to arrive
about 11am.

It's the left red one on this page http://www.dktools.com/torches_worklights-4.htm
This is on a wholesalers website so no prices. I paid £19.99 Scottish Pound and think that it is worth that.

Re: Self bleeding system

Given that the air traps are known in the Bongo system would it not be possible to connect in bleed tubes that could be bled remotely?
