Its been a long time since my last real update, so I am gona ease back into it and start with a small job.
Mirrors:
My mirrors where in good enough condition before the respray but the bases suffered from corrosion inside the rubber, making it bumpy in appearance.
I bought a spare set from the forum a long long time ago, and the bases were in good condition. Unfortunately the bolt attaching the mirrors to the bases
were seized solid. After pondering on what to do for a long time I decided I had to uses the destructive method of freeing the bases. This meant cutting off the
old covers and cracking the alloy mirror support so I could get good purchase on the bolt.
After failing with the vicegrips "nut lathe", I need heat but I didnt want to use a torch/flame.
After heating it with a cheap ZVS induction heater I had success.
All the bits
