Car workers show off their bodywork

SWINDON CANCER APPEAL: DARING Honda workers have been stripping off to help the appeal. Twelve fearless friends have bared all to create a fundraising calendar.

More than 100 copies have been sold, raising £550.

The guys are pictured in their birthday suits with car tyres, mops and even a traffic cone to preserve their modesty.

The calendar Called Rebels Without Their Clothes was inspired by last year's calendar produced by the BT engineers. Fergal McGrath, 31, of Wills Avenue, Swindon, who works in research and development, said: "I saw the coverage in the Adver about the BT boys, and thought it would be fun to do something similar.

"We got our partners to take the pictures, and luckily they saw the funny side.

"My wife Sarah thought I would never do it, but I proved her wrong."
