Never again!!!!!!!!!!!

I took the rumble out, and to leave it out and use it as a trunk, second to fix the handle lock since it had no key. When I took it out, the previous owner did not use the D nuts and screws to secure the bottom part of the backrest. It was two wood screws and a washers drill into the lid frame. No problem, I was leaving the seat out anyway. Took the handle off and took it to a locksmith where he cut a new key to fit the original tumblers. Picked it up today, worked fine until I went to lock the lid down. The latch coming out of the cylinder is not slotting itself when I go to lock it. The slotted circle inside the lid is too far away for the latch to fit down inside. OK, so the rumble can't be locked, so I decided to put the rumble back................sure!!!! Back went in OK but getting it bolted down at that angle by someone not so agile anymore is another thing. I did order and get the proper D bolts but finding the hole at my age, is a different matter.......to make a story even longer, the rumble is back in, secured, seat in place and secured and the handle is back as it was.......................

I was fighting cramps both in my fingers and brain when I posted this thread, sorry for the confusion. It was meant to relieve myself of impure thoughts.

Ahhh, makes sense now. I understand, I get brain cramps myself.

I'm disappointed. So, all those stories about the ladies coming to visit when their husbands weren't looking weren't true after all??

The old saying? Can't find the hole unless it has hair on it...

Most of us "been there, done that". Don't be so hard on yourself.
