Lost and Found.

Just come to remove the rear side pannels on the roof and as a concequence had to remove the rear side facing bench seats to gain access to the centre bolt.



I groaped around and found what I thought was the nut and applied the mole grips...all by feel.



Undid the bolt inside the back of percy with the ratchet to hear a reasuring clonk on the garage floor.... get out of Percy to see the mole grips suddenly have a years worth of rust and crud on them.... spooky!



Took a peek under the arch...to see my other mole grips I'd just applied still clamped on under the arch fastened to another bolt inches from the seat bolt hole.



I wondered where I had put the other mole grips !!!.... soaked them in 3 in



1 oil and apart from being a little pitted the still work fine!!! I fitted the seats a year ago :-)
