An old sparkplug makes a great puller for the heater valve cores. One that has

The "Charge air cooler" also known as the "intercooler" is a very big deal
with a Diesel engine... Power produced with each power stroke of the engine

have them make a set of patterns, then make and install seat covers..
I would call this a fair deal.

If only that body could be forgotten! Almost as ugly as the Camargue.
What you *want* is a pre-69 Silver Shadow, which of course used Citroën
