Thanks guys. Not fully well yet - this last post is about a week's work so slow going still, but improving

I would definitely have had the heated screen if it could be taken out without destroying it, but it can't so that's staying.

Glad to hear things are improving : small steps matter, best not to rush it - but great to see WITW posts again - they're often the best thing on here these days .

Well, as promised this has now gone to its new home. As a helping hand for the new owner I replaced the seized wiper mech with a working one, then we loaded it on the trailer and off it went





The new owner has already sourced a bunch of mechanical parts for it and hopefully will join the forum to document the rest of the work
