Boy what a mission!
All the usual obstacles like unclear instructions-supplied rivets too small-washers too big-different diagrams, then not being able to close the damm sucker!
In the end i had to tie each side of the hood frame to two fence posts & with the windows nearly closed & the heater on full i slowly reversed inch by inch until the latches were able to be clamped.
then it was just a case of tightening all the nuts & screws.
Gnarly but on a high now!

Think i will leave it shut for the Taupo club day
