What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Couldn't make the most of the nice spring weather because I've got the steering column out of the the RP at the moment, waiting for parts. I decided to do something different and started clearing some of the land behind the house. By chance I came across this, which had apparently been lying in the undergrowth for some time:

I am told that it's a headlamp shell for a 2CV and will fit any model with round headlamps. It does need a little attention, as the pointy bit is rusted through but it is retrievable. Unfortunately the red plastic widget is missing but everything else is there, including the cable grommet, the spring loaded top catch and the wing fastening.

If there's anyone on here that could use it, let me know, otherwise it's going on "leboncoin". Here's what the pointy end looks like, so you're in no doubt as to its condition:

Going to see if I can find the rest of the car tomorrow!
