Tom was trying to remove the spigot on the end of the rack the ram attaches to, so the gaitor could be salvaged. After much head scratching, chin rubbing, swearing and beer, it proved far easier to swap over the racks!

I think it had nothing to do with the shop personnel (no matter that they may have been at strike when my BX was produced).
I believe it all started one afternoon when the head designer said: "Well, comrades, here comes another bottle of Chateau Neuf. Ah, did some of you really mention that we need an engine to be installed in the car? OK, let us discuss this aspect later".
