So long as you don’t fall fowl of the supervisor you should be fine!
Yeah I know it’s a lame gag but it had to be done.
That timing belt it the pic is fine, it has at least another 100 yards of driving left it!!!
A family friend took an early example of a JCB in lieu of a bad dept. After a bit of dent knocking, spanner work & canary yellow paint, me placed a small advert in the local rag (newspaper) & hired it out. It didn’t take long before he found another stuck in a bog & with the help of the first pulled it out, was PAYED to take it away. A lot of washing & paint soon had that earning its keep & that was the first one I ever drove. A third & forth came along, along with the need of a tractor unit & trailer, then a support Land Rover, again the first one I ever drove.
All this with little investment other than initial restoration & paint & after a few years he created a company whose workforce shared in the profits & that made a huge difference to the maintenance bill & the quality of cars in the tidiest plant hire car park your likely to find.
When you are invested in your company you look after your investment. Providing you have retained the sense you were born with.
