Rust - Freeing and removing rusty nuts & corroded bolts

If you have any doubts about your own abilities when it comes to working on your car, I'd recommend getting hands-on advice & help from someone who is used to working on old cars. I can't accept any responsibility for mistakes you make, or things being damaged as a result of your working on a car after having read articles on this site. If in doubt, check with a marque expert first. You can find contacts for owners clubs in the club directory (see homepage). One of the most frustrating problems that the budding classic fan is likely to come up against is freeing up rusted nuts or bolts.

Before doing anything drastic, clean up the bolt head and surrounding area as much as possible. Next, make sure you are using the correct size spanner, anything else will probably slip under load and likely as not, damage both you and the bolt head at the same time. Most of these hints apply to nuts and to bolts. The Highway Code : Directgov - Travel and transport.

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland British vehicle registration plates (‘number plates’) usually indicate both the vehicle's place of origin and age . Vehicles are not re-registered when the owner moves about the country, so the registration town is where it was sold when new.

Plates can be swapped between vehicles, so the age guide is not completely reliable, but it is illegal to use a plate that is ‘newer’ than the vehicle. A definitive exposition of UK vehicle registration plates can be found in the book A History of Motor Vehicle Registration in the United Kingdom [1999/2001] by L H Newall, the revised edition of which has now sold out, too. Further information on British registration plates, including the history of their issue, and their use as personalised plates, can be found at Number Plates Club .
