Thanks Rob and Terry for the "Kiwi" input into this project, as an Aussie doing up an ex Kiwi Truck, I don't have many people this side to ask.
In answer to your question how is it going?. I have ordered the parts I need for the engine ($790) and I was happy with that as it could have been a lot more. Funny thing I found after pulling the engine out of an acid bath was a small plate that had been tacked on to the block near the starter motor. It basically said a name of a Dubbo Firm that has long since gone and a date and year the engine had a total rebuild......1957...... I am putting parts back in it to let me use unleaded fuel. Hope to have the engine bolted back in two weeks.
Have put the first coat on a lot of parts etc too. Next few days am about to put a new panel on the lower back section of the cab and get it ready.
Question? - what was the height from the truck deck to the middle of the canopy bow?
