A more relaxing day today. First a look at that rear panel with the rough holes, both for the exhaust hanger, but only one needed on a 4 cylinder.
This is the offside:
Hard to say whether this is best left alone or 'fixed', So I shaped some 1mm aluminium, and painted it, then used double sided tape and we'll see how we go with it:
Offside
Nearside
Here's the later badge. I'm not keen, preferring the older badge, although this one is not flaking.
So here is the replacement - a bit pricy though.
Now this comes flat, so you have to apply a bit of force to get the right curvature. I used masking tape to protect it, and used the vice. So now it's curved. The washers and nylocs are from my stock.
It has a hollow back, so guess what?
The right hand hole has been slightly elongated.......
Hey presto - I like this a lot more.
More to follow.............
