(and I politely ignored the bit about the "petty" V8)

Short for Petrol 8-) ... although not really that much shorter admitedly ::) ... don't forget, I've had mine fourteen years, and covered a few kms ... (about 17,000) ;)

Be it firearms or V8 engines, the question is not "why should you have them?"
, but "who are you to demand that I justify them?"

At Moth's request this topic has been tidied up to remove any distraction from Eddy's Terrier.

If anyone finds a post of theirs missing here it will have been quoted by Moth in the topic on HIS Terrier.....

From the photo of your grandson in the Truck - the small amount of dash I can see - seems to be the "basic" or early version .. is the speedo in the middle ?.

That's what you'd find if you remove your dash also. Mine had the same plastic dash, but in more sections, as yours. My attempts at removal and taping together for use as a mold for a fiberglass replacement ended in tears.
I've actually had the speedo panel mounted in the centre, and it looks cool, real old school, but really annoying when driving and trying to check the speed etc ...
