About to go for an IndianProper getting there now mate, the beer should be mopped up with a special order from Dominoes, you deserve it
yeah cheers feels like it is now. That rear bit annoyed me but I know now to just leave things like that n come back. Isn't going anywhere. It's the wriggling underneath and holding yourself up with your core that's the hardest bit of all. I've entered a new area of the chassis now as hadn't visited trailing arm brackets yet haha. I really hope the front isn't as bad as the rear lol

You can borrow mine if you want to. If you can pick them up .
Cheers do you know how did they are when closed?
Open to opinions but discovered today that there are 2mm plates behind the outer vent surround these are to support the bonnet brackets pictured. I'm thinking I'll very carefully cut along my vent tie in line (the gutter), removing the skin but leaving the 2mm in place. I'll then somehow tie the 2mm back in to the inner bulkhead. Surely someone has come across this before?
Patience, g clamps and a rubber mallet were the key today. Looks like I'm just about lining up. Despite keeping a 5mm plate clamped to my work area I still warped the metal and had to clamp and beat and fiddle to get straight. I'll test fit against the windscreen and doors once I've tacked. If I'm out I'll just break the tasks then.

They’re down my mums. I think they are about 5foot or so.
If I still got the details on my eBay buys, I’ll see if it says on there.
Cheers. I'd have to get a lad to grab them as got a coupe!

Masochist!
I miss physical graft for some reason. When I do a good days graft on motor I get a good sense of gratification.
