Time to start the real work
Decided to remove the LHF side section of cut armour as it had a section cut out of it. Utilised 4"cutting discs to cut out the original welds and then finished off with a sledge hammer to knock it out and break the last of the welds.
Attended a car show/picnic with my 'Follow me' GPW Jeep & trailer and the WC-57, met several people that had info and stories about using Dodges on their farms and BGC. Met an older fellow who used to used blitz trucks for logging, he also said that they wrecked a BGC for its engine and that the tracks were out in the forest where they took them off. He is going to give me a map of their location. Recovery trip for the future.

forgot to attach the pic
here is a pic of my work after cutting out the armour and knocking it out with the hammer. Certainly makes it easier to get in and out of, so I can see why farmers cut them around a bit.
Also bought some aluminium steps to get in and out of the rear section of the hull, it is a lot of climbing when doing little jobs and removing items.

Hi Darrin,
I thought you might have made the steeps out of wood? Pic from AWM
