    I think the old trucks were hinged in three places because with just one the headlamps would obstruct opening the hood, problem is it's got to be at least one in the middle and jiggle opening it or go all the way with three. Vent is a problem with either option. I think it'll look better with...

    Getting Gwen the Mini to Run.

    I have re-used a copper head gasket in the past, got wifey to iron it then torqued it down to 60 lbs feet Might be worth tightening the head down to 60 , they seldom warp being cast iron

    They usually leak around the engine number area, I always used to put a but of gasket stuff on that area when assembling. Water may be running along from the thermostat housing though

    Navigation problem

    It's just a toy most of the time, found sat nav handy around Edinburgh when we went though I usually look up my destination on google maps first and then just go, nav is handy when it gets complicated in strange cities, my memory isn't what it was and things change over the years.

    Navigation problem

    After 45 + years driving the highways and byways, some years pre most motorways, I can get most places without a map or a motorway. I do need the above A to Z books for the final mile or so though. It's just annoying that I can't get the nav to work or the bluetooth phone 🥲🥲
