Hi Ian, they will definately have the correct latches on them and I will have some of the rear boxes as well.
Hi Euan, if I can get enough time I will make some drivers tool boxes. It just depends if I can make the die's to produce the hinges but I will do my best.
regards
Colin.

Heat shields finished. They are fully welded with 25mm thick fibrocement sheeting inside as a replacement for the original aspestos they used back then. I also did the same in my mortar carrier as it is exactly the same and it works a treat, but it does make them quite heavy.

Your a machine! If you'd been around in the war, you woulda shortened it! Go and say hello to your wife and kids.. Do they recognise you? (I know they do)
Are you intending to tool up to make tail lights?,...or are they easy to get in Oz?
