Here's how we play, you have one go each per day, try and name any mechanical part or moving part that I havent replaced, repaired or upgraded on my V8 Developments 4.6 wedge that I have just sold. ( Excluding the entire chassis and wiring system ) The prize will be offered to the person naming the tenth part I havent replaced, repaired etc....Good fun or what.......The prize is somthing every wedge owner needs........but it's a secret
