The chassis was ready to pick up from the sandblasters and with that out of the way I was able to take in the stripped hull, the front axle complete with springs and other smaller items.

Once again a crew at the sandblasters was arranged and they did the heavy work as I took photos.

The chassis came up a treat.

At last I was starting to see some results happening. The chassis was taken home and set up ready to receive the many items as they were rebuilt.

The front axle, hubs etc were all sealed up so that the medium would not get into the workings. Large coffee tins were just the right size to seal off the hubs.
