oopps jimny fell over was created by a18suf
went out today lanning usual routes near me, been up them all before but jimny decided to fall over. got it winched back up and was suprised by the little amount of damage. broken window, smashed snorkle and some dents. jimnys are not as girly as i thought. checked it over and we carried on up the lane, i will not be making the same mistake again lol.

cut out a square piece removing broken parts then cut another piece of plastic to fit a smidge bigger and melt it to join then smear with araldite to seal will do for time being maybe even ever
