What a lovely old English word - buggered - use it all the time over here ! Yup you are right a good clout with my heavy ballpeen hammer and the bottom bit fell off.

I've now got rid of 95% of the rust and left the pole in natural steel and painted the working part/base and cranking stick with Hammerite black.

I know you'll know the answer to my next question - where does it live in the trunk ? - for instance should there be some clips or whatever to hold it in place ? - my car does not have any lining of any sort or clues to the materials either as all was eaten away by the South African bugs when she was used as a tractor on a tobacco farm in Rhodesia.

I have downloaded a few photos from the various websites which help but any further info. would be appreciated.

Photos of mine attached - looks a bit better eh ?

Regards Michael
