Default Emergency Kit for Club Trailer

I telephoned Theo today to discuss the following with him before I posted the matter on your Forum.

I have been gradually gifting and selling the remaining stock and equipment (what was able to be retrieved) from my business Rapid Performance. I still have an amount to sort and have decided it would be fitting to put together an "Emergency Kit" that would travel in the Club Trailer for those moments of need! Theo will help decide what is of use but any ideas of what you would like in this, please post here.

This is a small gesture, for your Club to remember Craig and I know he would like and approve of me doing this. He loved the ORSM Club and spent a lot of time working on your cars and attending shows with you. Many of you were his real mates.

Regards
Gaela

Russell has sorted a bit of a starter kit during the weekend and we have also pulled out 2 outdoor bbq lights (still boxed) and a pair of altezza tail lights which I will donate as Raffle prizes for a bit of fundraising. Will sort the rest over the next couple of weeks after Chris and Theo have sorted what they need at Bluepower and we will attend your next meeting and deliver the goods.

I bought a set of 4 a few weeks ago (as future backups) from FTG Auto Salvage. Fantastic price (I got them on ebay) and they were the ones with the black for the Ford emblem backing colour. They are genuine and about 1/3 the cost that Ford want for them.

Cheers

Sorry Tony but I got them as I wrecked mine modifying them for the Cobra copies I bought. Putting them with my genuine wheels in storage.

Phone FTG Auto as they will no doubt have some more and you will probably pay less than I did.
