As title my Mrs motor is up for its annual, so will give it a look over during the week end with view to presenting it later next week, Rick

jims-terrano · 09-02-2018, 00:39

I can’t imagine a truck of yours failing Rick but good luck anyway

Gave it a look over and while some tin worm is making its presence felt I see no reason for it to fail, this was before I started using stainless for repairs, it is booked in for 11.15 am today Rick

Nice one

Where on the windscreen is the crack?

solarman216 · 15-02-2018, 21:47

OS bottom corner, but water is getting at the plastic now turning it white, so thinking going to have to replace before long, Rick
