Got side-tracked with other projects while we were waiting to see how many people might still be interested in a pair of the lockers that go over the fuel tanks.

Production has begun on left and right lockers with the one on the driver side having the built in divider and rack for the signal flares. The one on the driver side has no internal features (per original design) other than the raised rim around the hole that the fuel tank filler neck goes through which is being built into both lockers. Tops will have the internal x-crimp and mounting sockets for the seat frame.

Photos below show the type of x-crimp in reverse as it appears on the large locker that goes on the outside of the T-16. This was an earlier project we were looking for interested parties to go in with us on. Only three takers on that one and they are all done now and in the hands of the happy owners. Friggin lockers were 48 pounds each which was a bitch to ship so glad that is over now.





If anyone is wanting a pair of the lockers that go over the fuel tanks, please shoot me a PM ASAP as like other projects, we won't be having any others made once we have gotten what we need for our own vehicles. Not a business, just someone doing a restoration and the more takers on a project, the lower the cost for everyone that joins in.
