Default AS time permits....

....would not mind seeing your progress on the box and some general before and after pictures. Wheels/rims will most likely be found in old junk yards associated with 1940 GM/Chev.... very narrow for 7:50 tires.... military may have been oversize to 8:25 .......

Certainly a very sturdy frame....overbuilt as anything else from that period.

One question puzzles me...... after thw war it was quite common to retro fit CMP with civilian double wheels which fitted the rear axle shaft and bearing...... I wonder if the same applies in reverse..... that a CMP brake plate, drum and 20 CMP wheel could fit on that same axle shaft...?

Any one knows out there...?

Bob
