Having rust treated the w/w mech last night I have painted it this am, took far longer to organise this and clean up afterwards than to do the job, as it is so often!
Now wondering if I am going to be able to mend the plastic plenum thingy that covers the well under the windscreen and between it and the bonnet/engine compartment.
As usual with plastics, no idea which glue will be the best.
I wish there was some way of finding this out.
It says on it JAG 100100 ABS/PCA
I have googled it to try and find out but not much help.

I searched for the plenum and found it on another site, not in stock as per but they wanted money above 200sovs! (Well above. :eek:)

Against the odds it is faintly possible that I have managed to glue the two big sections together.
Ali-express are doing them for a lot less money. https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005...e493dbd41a0a3d87a86d9efa57e&afSmartRedirect=n
 
That sting/bite in my foot what I got this morning has somehow turned quite serious.
Totally fed up of how we come over here and one or both of us go down with something. I have to sit or lie with my foot up and can barely stand on it or hobble with it.
Flipping thing.
Totally no idea what it could have been.
If no better tomoz I'll have to go to "urgences".
REALLY fed up :mad::mad::mad::mad:.

Judging by the one I saw they were low mileage and had been stored very correctly. i.e. in a proper garage or summat. Rob never buys rubbish.
Rob bought it from the guy who saved what he could, so the whole story is secondhand, but he says the guy was a British car nut and lots of them were one owner, low mileage as was the 2.5pi.
I agree that it is a massive shame when stuff that could be useful to others gets thrown away.
Enthusiasts of old Brit classics that were used as donors for kit cars are now searching for and buying the kit cars to source parts for their own cars. I in my own garage have bits for Cortina mks 3 and 4 and morris Marina stuff. Talking engines and gearboxes here as well as other miscellaneous bits. Triumphs were popular donors as so many of them had chassis and sub assemblies..

Great shame, at least something was saved. I'm surprised if most cars were low mileage, good condition etc that the sons didn't want to 'bother with some paperwork'. I'm assuming this is in France - if they were still on UK plates then there would have been a lot of difficulty and expense but if they had already been imported onto French plates then not much of a problem?

Funny how the tables have turned over time re. people now seeking out kit cars for parts!

I agree, don't let it get any worse.

I got bitten on the leg by something in Spain once, didn't see what it was but I guess it must have either been a spider or a snake even though the doctors insisted it couldn't be anything like that because they weren't poisonous.

It swelled up, I couldn't sleep and I could feel the tendons grating inside so that was it - hospital.
 
Got an Orses Piddle visit t'day, fer an Ultra Sound on me neck ...

Bleddy thing swells up at rando moments, for an hour or so, made worse by eating and chewing, but only on the right side ...

Then half an hour later, it goes down a bit, unless I eat summat else ...

Next day, right as rain, eating, drinking ... nothing, nada, no reaction at all ...

Rando blockage of drainage from someplace to someplace else ...

Nurse at the GP's said, "that's SOOO weird" ....
