Nothing in writing only our shared experiences on the forum - browse around and check some of the readers rides threads - in fairness you are unlikely to encounter much that anyone on here hasnt experienced :D Welcome!
 
i've just downloaded the manual and parts list from the mechanical section, just to say thank you to whoever spent the time to organise that as i really appreciate it. :D
 
Nice to hear from young people into old cars I was delighted to sell my mk 4 cortina to an 18 yr old full of ford knowledge excellent [^] You could certainly achieve a high standard commer in the time you have untill you can drive,something very worthwhile,good man!

ditto they look nice on Ray's van but not that nice.. tippex?

In fact Jules you seem to be a man with connections in this world would we be able to get a batch of mudflaps with commer written on the back made up?
 
Sadly I dont know anything about rubber manufacturers as I only really have contacts in UK. And I think pretty much all rubber is foreign manufactured, eg the Dunlop plant is in India and the ICI one in Malayasia. I dont think there are any small concerns (which are the sort of people I know) which make rubber products as you need pretty heavy industrial equipment to form rubber, and then another huge factory to vulcanise it
That is why polyurethane is so popular these days - you can pretty much mould it in your kitchen.

Perhaps a step beyond tippex would be to buy rubber sheet (70 or 80 shore), cut to shape, and get some white vinyl letters cut. This would be pretty much as good as the OE parts and about £40 cheaper.
