That's all the 'Bling' it's getting though  . AZL57 wrote: nice nice.You see why the enlarged the rear windows. But often the french did open the rear doors to drive backwards  P1020052 by Robndaisy, on Flickr No good this rubber, window keeps dropping on my elbow  .  P1020051 by Robndaisy, on Flickr will this stud,  P1020054 by Robndaisy, on Flickr fit ok in a clip like this?  P1020055 by Robndaisy, on Flickr If it will then I can file cutouts in this hole(and the other one) to take the newer clip. What else can I do?

Re: Van repairs These rubbers for the window are also in later 2cv's in the bonnet stay. The modern clip won't fit. But the burton ones look ok. Put some vaseline on them.

Re: Van repairs  P1020059 by Robndaisy, on Flickr The bonnet came with one of the four pieces needed to make up the chevrons.

Re: Van repairs As soon as the Charleston clears it's re-test(a puncture to the rear Toyo 135, on the morning of the test  , forced me to fit the spare which had a 125 Mich.so it failed). Three new Toyo's (two on the back axle and the spare) to be fitted by my MOT guy on Friday, and I'll book a test for the van ASAP. Some say you need it, others say you don't, I say it's a good thing to have independent verification that what you've done, especially after a re-build, is fit for purpose . It's not as if I've got anything to hide  .

Re: Van repairs Hope the test will work out fine.
I would love to see some pictures of the van driving through Welsh countryside .
Next time I will meet you from Hungary.
