Snagged complete set of of Marshall Cavendish #CarMaintenance and #Motoring partwork "On The Road" from 1978-1981 (in 10 binders)
If you are #GenX you may remember your dad buying at least some of these if he was into #cars (although to get the entire partwork would have cost about £300 (2026 money) in total, so relatively few people actually got whole set of 140)
These were sold not only in #UK but across #Commonwealth countries where folk drive on the left, one cool thing is all units are #metric first (with Imperial equivalents added afterwards)
Fair play to the previous owner, it looks like they did definitely make use of the section on changing #HeadGasket in #BritishLeyland engine 😁

@jsnell @NanoRaptor yes, and in the comments that’s where I broke the bad news about 2A0 — sadly it reverts from logarithmic to linear
2^180A0 is the universe
A232 is Planck length paper

These weird C-clamps are super weak. I googled the manufacturers "#Starrett, #BrownAndSharpe, #Mitutoyo and #Lufkin" and they aren't even known for making clamps! And these clocks aren't running, but even if they did it looks like some kind of #metric time. Useless.
At least there's some #Craftsman in the lot.
