Whitworth.... Ha-ha...

You must enjoy the aggravation of working on old British road oilers.
:frusty:

I still got 2 wrenches around someplace, a 22 and a 24, I think, that pissed me off many times trying to fit various japanese bikes over the years..... I just can't bring myself to throw out a tool what ain't busted. :laughing:
No Witnesses.... :shifty:
