Spark plugs and getting towed
Had no luck sourcing any spark plugs locally, or in the UK. The local shops tried their suppliers with no joy and http://www.sparkplugs.co.uk had some compatible ones in their catolog, but none in stock. So this left me with no option but to get the trans am towed. I called two local companies, didn’t even get an answer before ringing M & J Autos. We had a chat, he said he could shift it for £30 and explained that he’d recently bought himself a 1972 Ford Mercury! He guessed rightly that the car would be a similar length to his, about 16'-17' and said we’d need a low lifter with the car weighing about 1.7 tonnes. He ended up being a little late, but that wasn’t a problem because he was a great guy and went out of his way to drop the trans am right on my friends drive to save us pushing it.
