[TR] dum dum

[John Macartney]

Andy - I wasn't thinking so much about DumDum holding Heralds together - but
for keeping the water out! Mind you, it worked pretty well in Spitfires too,
and for exactly the same reason :)

>I'll echo Dave Massey's applause
as to the properties of 'DumDum.' For the
purist, no Standard-Triumph
enthusiast should ever be without it. We used tons
of the stuff at the factory
- as did people like Healey, MG and Rootes Group.
I'm surprised Andy Mace
hasn't entered the fray in its support as many
hundreds of Heralds left the
factory with more than their fair share of the
stuff on board.
