Default resto

For me it,s about originality, the items which we,ve collected are mostly of the 39-45 period [ as used by dad. ]some require remarking or painting, but the search is always on for one in better condition if possible. In most cases the one on display is not the best in collection [stored so not damaged ]. vehicle wise, my trucks are used, as many bits as possible are original, rebuilt, refurbished where possible back to original, eg just had a 216 engine rebuilt to original specs and remetaled brgs and reshimmed, only mod is a alloy camshaft gear. all safety items, tyres, brake lines, linings are modern to comply with current standards for rego. Maybe I,m lucky to have a supply of spares on hand, but with carefull maintaince hopefully no major problems occur.
