The "No golfer plays with a single club" rule is spot on.
3/4 drive drag links hard to get so have one on back order from the states. ( snap on as advised by Steve)
In the meantime ground down a hex drive and now have thirteen of the 5/8 screws undone and only one of the 3/8.
A T bar with a couple of lengths of water pipe to give extra leverage has done the best so far.
The rattle gun is impossible to keep in for more than a few hits and it damages the slot dreadfully. I will take my Big Hitter rivet gun with a slot snap and give them all a good rattle.
I will also hit them with some heat. Heating is a bit of a hazard given the amount of oil , grease etc built up in the engine compartment and the risk of fire.
So far bit over half of the big screws on the rear armor. First time out since 1942 so far as I can tell.
Below reground home made drag link ( about five grinds for ten screws) I use grinding paste in the slot to assist with keeping the blade engaged. The screw has been polished to colour parade colour standard :/
