Had a very productive afternoon in the garage fettling the 2C/375. Not a
lot left to do now, but I noticed a crack in the front mudguard. About 5
cms running by a rivet on the mounting bracket.
IIRC the same happened about 20 years ago, but I didn't spot it until
the back half of the guard nearly fell off, but I was able to get an
original item in the correct red paint lined with gold and black lines
to replace it. No chance of that today. Any welding/brazing solution is
going to mean an extensive repaint job and I may go down that route
eventually. For the moment all can think of is to take it off, drill a
small hole at the end of the crack to stop it and treat the underside
with JB Weld.
Will that hold it for a while, or do I need to bite the bullet and take
it to my tame, and very good car body place to do properly now?
