It feels like a proper FB now it has the bonnet bar on. Have I got the number plate fitted correctly?

If Rafferty doesn't harangue you into allowing at least a little drive, something is wrong :lol:

Ordered these clips that push on from the back. Same as I used previously.

Local rare spares said they were on back order but didn't say how long. These are supposed to arrive within two weeks.

Bonnet bar and latch plate off and bent in closer. It is twisted. Sitting up on the driver side about 10mm. Other side resting on the bump stop.ImageImage

I undid the cross brace and with bonnet up gave the front a decent twist. Now it fits properly.ImageImageImageImageImage

Bit more done this am.

Went for another trundle up the street. Brakes pulled up pretty well for emergency stop. Driver front started to lock with a wee skid.

Carburation seems to be the issue. Will pull it out and go through all the internal passazgws with reference to harvs guide.ImageImageImage
