Before you start ripping the final drive out of the car,  have you
checked that the de Dion tube is sliding freely ? Odd thumps and bumps
from a P6 back end can often be traced back to a sticky sliding joint.

Oh, and do check that the bushings for the Panhard rods are in good
shape while you are at it.

It may well be something else but since these are perhaps easier to
get to, I would be inclined to start the process of elimination with
the bits that are easiest to get at

Beer has no effect on concrete, but unless the concrete is specially
treated the taste of the beer could be affected. (Military Engineering
Vol XIV, Concrete, WO Code No 8626, 1952).

Army elastic bands in a temperate climate have a shelf life of 1 year
but in a tropical climate it is only 12 months. (Manual of Army
Ordnance Services Volume 1 Pamphlet No 2 Part 5 Appendix K, Army Code
No. 60065-1, 1977).
