Questions.....
NIce job Robert.....
I always enjoy following the progress done on CMP projects... ......and I use the opportunity to learn... On one picture of your newly painted cab...it shows, on the passenger side floor, a pipe tower and braces??? what is it for...? also observed that your floor panel on the driver's side seems to have a small rectangular door or access panel cut into the floor..... are these things "Holden bodies" differences...??? Amazing how many CMP restorations are done using farm tractors for lifting components...... I know my MF has now become a yard crane...... however the Ottawa Rotters do not have a good looking driver/operator......yet !! Keep up the postings... Bob

Thank for the comments Bob. The braced tower is a field modification for changing the two speed transfur box that has been fitted. The door in the floor gives you access to the top of the battery, I don't know whoes idea it was. Some parts might not get painted till after Corowa as I only have a week left to try for rego, I may have to end up with a travel permit as a last resort.
Wiring fiished under dash today so it's time for fitting the nose cone.

The nose is back on it's finally looking like a blitz again. I had to jump start the blitz to drive it under the nose the ten year old battery packe it in. I never broke a bolt pulling the nose off but managed to snap one on assembly

Wow
Amazingly speedy work Robert!
You certainly got your money's worth out of the battery.

Battery door
The late model C60L in Darwin's aircraft museum also has the battery access panel. Must have been a very late inclusion as its the ony one I have ever seen.
Sorry about the pic quality best I could do with my phone. Graeme
