I'd do the same with sidelights so you don't lose both rear lights together too.

Also - the original 7" sealed beam headlights in that would have been 45/60, not 55/60 H4, but a lot of the replacement sealed beam units are higher wattages like 55/65.

Running a relay loom for headlights they are usually fused at the battery end anyway.

Uploaded another from my Cine 8 on the other one but its not too good
Better video filmed but a 16 plate Festa got in the shot

She sounds OK apart from the exhaust blow but there was another whole new system with the car

That does sound good for an old lump, no clanging tappets for starters.

No just a slight blow from the first pipe from the manifold that's it mind you its stuck in reverse when it should be in park it seems to be the linkage from the column shift to lever on the side of the box I believe there's a nylon bushing that wear out and there's an adjustment that seize up so that needs looking into

Plus lack of brakes as there's no master cylinder i know this because its in front of me on the coffee table

Once it drives from key,stops and starts its off for welding then its back on the road

Need some Esso Golden though!

Ironic thing is all these years later the Esso Super appears to have the least amount of nasties in it
So that's what it will probably get
