Hi Robert,
Glad you made it safely home. I see you had to retie the tool box. Thought you might have to. Looking forward to seeing it all together on the Blitz. Regards Rick and Jill.

It looks like poaching season is on again.
Nice pick up Robert, should look at home on your truck.

GMH product
Robert
I see you chose a superior quality GMH product for your blitz. Your trailer tyres must have 50psi in them, can't see any deflection . You'll be using sledge hammers to panel beat that basic body into shape. If it was me, I would buy some steel plate and replace the panels( using the original as a pattern ) , but the average shop equipment, like Boyd Coddington used won't handle that thick steel . Mike

panels
GEE I would have thought at over 60 years old a FEW wringles are allowed, it,s got character. With the tool box and tyre rack the spray tank will be a tight fit, good hunting.

Thanks Euan, Miker and Bob, whem this tray is ready the spray rig will have to find a new home as I have decided to retire the blitz to club events considering its age. The tyres on the trailer are almost runflats they are light truck steer tyres.

Actually Mike, there is only a little rust in the body and it is pretty straight. Only the top corners of the tailgate are in need of replacement. There are a few bullet holes in the front panel, but as Bob says, that adds character.
Robert needs some hoodbows and the mounts which bolt to the side of the body if anyone has any. The toolbox just needs a sand down and a coat of paint. The spare wheel carrier is in need of a small weld job, but, it has an unusual antitheft devise on it. I'll post some photos later. Regards Rick.
