My previous post a few months ago on this failed to trigger a response - as we're now about to hang the finished front fenders, I'm hoping someone has a suggestion ...

The car in question is a 1954 TR2 long-door and the question is how the rear bolt fastening the fender to the scuttle is inserted/tightened?  There are two mounting points along the scuttle.  Both use ¼ inch UNF bolts that screw into captive nuts in the fender.  The front one is obvious as there is a hole in the scuttle accessible from the footwell.  No access for the rear bolt.  While it could be loosely screwed into the captive nut and slid into the mounting point on the scuttle which is open on the bottom, how is it tightened?

Surely someone has experienced this?

As always, any been-there-done-that thoughts would be muchly appreciated.

Cheers,

Brian
