Default Tail gate hooks

Here is a pic of the hooks on C8AX #891

They have a hinged drop down section that locks them in place.

Other trucks I've seen have a curved pin like the toolbox lockers.

Default Brush Bar Plan?

The Hand Throttle mystery is over! Have included two pictures for anyone who needs to know. Works for me.

The only part I am missing now is the radiator protector bar assembly for the Chev. Anyone got a plan for this? I understand the Fords were spring steel but the Chevs flat bar? If this is right I will make one myself, but if spring steel will get a spring shop to knock two up.

Default Finished the tray.....

Have finished the tray and got it in shed ready for the 'green dream'. The 4x2 on their tail gate now is only their as a brace. Only all the tray is painted the 4.5x2 can go on then.
