Default Ford FGT No9 Aust 134855 rebuild

Another step on the long road to restoration for the FGT when I removed the 2C1 box which had been sitting on the rear of the subframe (to keep it off the ground). It made the FGT into some sort of oversize pickup.

It was a case of undo the temporary U-bolts, lift it up, drive out and back in a trailer, ready for it's trip to Ganmain Tony to try out his welding skills.





I must admit, this is a very gnarly CMP!



The bits of primer are where I had to heat and use multigrips to remove sheared off bolts on the front shell.
