Odd Jobs - Part 3:
This decision was then repeated for some of the other work I was planning for today…

The bolts that hold the wind deflector for the rear view mirror are also too long.





As I want to fit the dome capped nuts on the ends to tidy things up.



But again, that can be added to the post-MOT list, which is clearly growing longer by the day.

Next, I made templates for the washers needed for the aero screen brackets.



As the bolts are just too close together for the penny washers I have.



I marked up the bonnet locating pin panel for the driver's side.



As the bottom corner of the bonnet ended up being built out a bit in the end.



At this point the sky was definitely turning against me.



So the covers when back on and I was safely indoors when it suddenly lashed down with rain.

There was then a bit of a break before I was able to do any more car work.

But this time I was located at the end of the garden just outside the Summer House…

Where I put a quick coat of paint on the "washer" for the rear view mirror wind deflector.



Note:
This will eventually be painted properly in BRG.

Made the washers for the wing mirrors and aero screen brackets.



End of Part 3…
