Rear spoiler blind needed replacing. Easy job that requires a bit of press fitting.
And my car didn't have scuttle gaskets when I bought it and seeing how fiddly they were to fit I can see why they weren't put back after some previous painting. The area just below the windscreen is notorious for rusting so I would imagine that job had been carried out by the previous owner. A few bolts needed loosening to separate the wing from the scuttle, then a rubber hammer and wedge was used to further prise them apart, before Ray and Paul got their rubber gloves and lubricant out to press fit them in. Even then the gaskets themselves needed trimming down as they were proving to be somewhat stubborn little things. A delicate job as it's easy to damage the wings so not one for the heavy handed.
