Re: Waxoyl lots of new panels

Hi Bill
thanks for the suggestion.
I did think about them, but see that they are about 40 miles away from me.

The mounts currently on the car (in my photos) are very badly damaged internally and cracked where the fixings are. They are not useable or fixable, a very competent friend has confi...

Split Screen Screw on Mirror

My 55 with split screen needs a new mirror, the backing has perished and it's more a window than a mirror. It bolts / screws directly into the splitter between the two windscreen glasses. It's about 120mm x 50mm. The mechanism is serviceable. Does anyone have one hiding away in a dusty box. Or have ...
