Any chance of a picture of the fracture for future reference?

Scraped frost/ice off mine this morning.

Put the key in and turned the ignition......................................

Vroom

will have to install the Pat pending cardboard radiator protector so it warms up a bit quicker.

Used the van for work and changed the oil while the engine was warm when I got back

went for the MOT at the end of last week, failed on the handbrake cable outer rusty, a brake pipe, front number plate, and advisory on rear lens, so not too bad,

the number plate and rear lens are simple swap jobs, I made up the brake pipe and fitted that on Sunday and today fitted the handbrake cable but the feckin silly little retainer clips that clip the front end of the cables into the bracket are rusty, so I gotta get a couple of them before I can run it back for a retest. :roll:

I couldn't find these wire clips (Number 23 in pic below) at short notice

But tried the c clips that retain the brake shoe ratchet lever and they fit a treat!

Replaced the windscreen because rust had caused it to crack

Had to use Ranger Stork threading kit on mine this morning.

One of the back tyres decided it didn't like air in it :roll:

I'll get it repaired properly after the holidays :wink:

When I've repaired or replaced the inner wing I'll paint the half panel & rivet it on to allow easy access in the future. Painted the inner wing for the moment to prevent further rust issues!
