Upper Middle Petrol Head:

Much to my annoyance, I am neither of the Project Binky duo.  I have very, very basic skills (I can more or less file things that I've cut at not quite 90 degrees back to relatively square, hitting stuff with a hammer is within my scope and I know which way to turn a nut, bolt or screw to do it up or loosen it).  My toolkit is commensurate with my abilities, which is to say that it's not comprehensive. However, I am a big fan of the Dunning-Kruger Effect ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect ) and its ability to explain why-T-F it is that I imagine I should even attempt to fix half the busted bits that I find myself tinkering with.  As far as broad reaching, explain-nearly-everything theories go, D-K has it nailed! This explains so much! This is the winder mechanism.  The thing that looks like a cross-section of a rotary engine sits at the base of the main structure and cogs within it mesh with the teeth of the crescent-shap

Now Then Readers may remember that this venerable Morris 1100 has featured on UMPH before ( https://uppermiddlepetrolhead.blogspot.com/2018/03/random-206-morris-1100.html ).   The last time it was shown, it was exhibiting what might reasonably be described as  patina , given that its paint was apparently original and was showing its age a tiny bit. Fast-forward a couple of years and here you have the same car, same spot in North Hobart, but now featuring a glossy new paint job that's really given the car new lease of life.  It was always lovely but now it's been lifted to a new level!  Nice!
