Interesting you should mention front cab insulaters made from tyre sidewalls as that is the material I am going to use on my 13 cab front mountings.
I need to sort out the method of attaching rear body to chassis with I think packing pieces between wooden runners and top of chassis rail.
Any ideas gratefully received, and thanks for the encouragment had some good news yesterday as I have now sorted out an age related reg No. free road tax and exemption from MOT testing, there is a god after all
Cheers RR
