bonnet flipped up !!!
« on: 18 October 2014, 14:50:51 »

Yep luckily it was the rat--not miggy--somebody pulled bonnet pins out--I didn't notice >:( went down road at about 50 mph-up it went--2x hinges bent and bonnet too :( :( DO not try this at home nor on a miggy-----
however hammer/welder and hot rod  ingenuity sorted it-oh and 2x plasters ---no animals were hurt in this production ;D ;D ;D ;D
culprit

fix-2x plasters after hammer and big boot to straighten bonnet

how it looks after repair-

not the approved method yed if you need to ask you wouldn't understand---its a rat thing ;D ;D ;D

My brother did that to an old VW Polo. Two bonnet pins from helfrods to replace the hinges and all was well...

Did eventually replace the hinges, and fortunately it didn't brake the screen... have had it happen to me in a beaten up Renault 25... nearly shat a brick when it happened as I was on a dual carriageway at night when it wrapped itself around the front edge of the roof and smashed the screen...
