Hey all;

I'm trying to remove the rear driver's side fender from my 3A. How in the w=
orld does one=20
remove those last three vertical (i.e., one above the other) bolts at the r=
ear of the rear fender
(next to the tail light)? The fender is curved so one cannot even get a wre=
nch on it, even=20
with a flex socket. Did Triumph assemble these with British pygmies?? :- )=
=C2=A0 I have been=20
trying, unsuccessfully, for several hours....

Thanks for any insights....

Dave Friedlander
