Limited Sunday Service - Part 2:
Yesterday I made a school boy error when I drilled the new fixing holes in the stop/tail light.
At the time, I didn't want to drill through the metal earthing strip, so I simply drilled a hole to the side of it.
What I had failed to take into account, was the position of the existing holes in the body shell.
Yes, this meant that the fixing holes for the lens would not line up with the indicator.
To avoid a complete OCD melt down, I decided to drill an extra set of holes in the body shell.
Filling in the other holes will be another post MOT job.
Eventually, the rear lights on the passenger side were fitted.
And the back end was looking like this.
I just need to sort out my wonky number plate plinth and the rear end will be good to go.

That was all the car work I managed to do and I ended the day tidying up the grass verge in front of my house.
But by the time I had tidied everything up I was completely knackered.
The only good news was that as I sat down to type this update, it started lashing down outside.
Until next time, take care. Paul.
PS
I've got one more post to come, which compares my car to
Mister Towed's.
