Default springs

As far as I know , the over ride springs are a post war add on by a civilian ? They are not mentioned in the parts book anywhere .

Its looking great . I sandblasted my chassis as you are doing . Make sure you use good hearing protection . The loud air rushing noise ( white noise cos its full of harmonics ) , is extremely damaging to your ears , you can end up with tinitus, a permanent ailment, for the rest of your life , no cure known for it .

The rubber spring stop blocks on the chassis, I found nos ones years ago at Hancock spares in Camberwell , where Keith Webb worked . I noticed they don't line up too .... weird isn't it .
