Hello,
 
Had an oil-line to gauge melt-down this summer. Friend Gary Fish lent me a  
red plastic reflective safety triangle until the issue was dealt with. I  
remember seeing one in my wife's Audi, so I went on a hunt for one in  local 
junk-yards. Hard to find. Too few Audis and the trunks all seem to be  
locked ! Anyway, ended up with one from a Volvo in a nice blue plastic case. If  
you don't have one onboard your Sunbeam, I suggest you think about obtaining 
 one.
 
Now, to the Fairmont I saw in the junkyard. I remember that Maverick  fans 
are much sought after for better cooling in a Tiger. I spotted a  Fairmont 
with a straight six (dark Ford blue valve cover) with a fan that looked  the 
part. Any joy in this, or is the Fairmont too new and non-compatable?
