It works now. I wonder why it didn't earlier?

also if anybody has one or knows the where abouts of one I will be very interested. I might as well have it fixed because the car is too good to just scrap like this
. I'll be upgrading to bigger vehicle like a transporter or combi.

So that looks like you should be able to keep her on the road. Might I suggest that, when you find a good one, (or even a NOS one) treat it to a good coating of something like Hammerite paint, to protect it for the future.

I had my subframe out on the drive, then refitted it later. In a garage on a lift it would be an easy job.

Just a case of unbolting the mounting bolts, the bottom arm bolts, only 2 bolts securing the steering rack, anti-roll bar bolts and unclipping the brake pipes, then down she comes. So long as your pipes are in good order, there shouldn't be a problem.
When we scrapped one a few months ago, we had the car on a lift and the use of air tools. 15 mins tops and the subframe was on the floor.
