    The left and right screws are still intact it's only the centre that's not longer with us!

    I've actually got a few long M4 bolts kicking around so I'll get to drinking and get some decent glue! I don't actually have anything to bond it with other than gaffa tape...

    Best choice of binding agent?

        You went to Morwenstow with that numberplate?

        Were you around the Bude/Widemouth Bay area on Sunday - sure I waved to a white 'KGB'


        Oh and I have a lower column plastic if you want it - from my breaker.

          Yes we did! My sister is walking the whole of the Cornish coast national trust paths, that was the starting point! And also the vans first run for us

          I'm also aware the rear plate could do with replacing haha

              Not so much an update as an achievement milestone!

                      MIne either - it runs out of the holes in the tank before it's full.

                      At least I have a spare tank from my scrapper to use.......or I would have if the scrapyard monkeys hadn't chopped through the tank with a disc cutter....... if only I had said quite specifically "don't cut through the fuel tank because I need that", oh no wait......twats.

                          Mother fudglings. (Presumably passes the profanity rules?)

                          Another minor update this evening!

                          Had a quick nose at the heater matrix because the temp dial does sweet fa, And to my surprise (heavily loaded sarcasm) the little ball has indeed snapped off the control arm.

                          This being a strange alloy, I'm pondering whether it's even strong enough to drill out and thread to hold a bolt in (to replace the feeble nipple)

                          Anyone drilled one out before? Or is it probably just worth hunting fleabay and the like for a replacement?

                            Have a word with Bigred he repaired his by bonding some sort of fishing ball on the end which broke. Looked a quality and lasting repair.

                              Ha!

                              You want to know what the most asked for item is on the T4 I'm breaking is? Now do you want to guess what part on the T4 I'm not selling is?

                                I'm not even remotely surprised Reg! haha

                                I did see some guy selling reinforced brass replica's for around £30 on the bay. But couldn't even begin to justify £30 for it... not until I've exhausted other options.
