So my day started earlier than I would have liked, but in exchange I got to collect the centre caps for the truck.
Did some laundry, single life rocks.... ermmm maybe.
Got out by 10am and chatted to Mickey next door for about half an hour, then got the cars swapped around, started the truck up and reversed it down to the garage.
First jonpb to do as to mark and drill some holes in the license plate backing plate, get some nuts and bolts to attach said number plate.
I wanted to mount it up high against the top of the rear bumper.
Got that done, ensuring maximum space for when the Towbar gets fixed in there.

Remember in the engin bay, the radiator shroud was missing, as it had been removed and not replaced and subsequently thrown away by a previous owner.
Then I found one to but over in Essex, including cost of fetching it, as £25.00
So having undone the top radiator hose and removed it, I managed to wriggle it into place over the fixed fan. Slipping it into the S-clips,I also had to move the lower hose Jubilee clip to allow the shroud in.
For the top fixing, it was two tims of nuts and bolts. Allowing me to find pieces that fit into the look, and the right size.
The two top corner fixings took forever to seat and get to grip, and my sausage shaped fingers could not get in to hold it all in place.
Fixed.
After seeing @Disasterbus success with his air filter and aluminium foil, I thought it prudent to try the same method on mine.
Starting here......
Removed.
Halfway there.
Resulting in this.
Back in place, far from perfect, but certainly improved.
