The Devil's in the detail
In the last few days I've remade the grille as the replacement I had was a bit ratty. A bit of a grit blast and paint and it's come up well - Pic 1.
When the accident occured the passenger's door sprung open and was quickly followed by my passenger. A pretty scary moment, not least for the poor chap who fell to the ground by way of a nasty bramble bush. So I've made up a pair of locks for the front doors. I hope they look suitably period being a no nonsense simple set up. - Pic 2. I'm going to fit similar to the rear doors, damn the expense...
I've pulled out the damage to the division between the driver & radio operator's compartment using the trusty ash tree and cargo straps - Pic 3. I've left a couple of clamps in place as I need to tack them back in place.
Started her up and after I'd done with the ash tree I parked her up whilst I went for a cuppatea, couldn't resist a another - Pic 4.
I need to replace a couple of bolts on the hatch and wire the front end and that's it.
Then it's tanks out for renewal and the leaky transfer seal.
