First weekend without a total fire ban and it's up to the shed.
It is ankle deep in dead leaves here so the gas axe and angle grinder are off limits for a while.
Started to pull the mantle and main gun parts out of the turret.
I pullled the trunion caps off and still plenty of grease in there which means a clean up and paint only. Made a tool to act as a screwdriver to remove the 20 odd screws but this is a 2 man job for tomorrow.

The old hull has been salvaged of all usable parts as well as the damaged diffs.
Another set of diffs arrived today which are low miles and not damaged.
Very Happy.

Hi Wayne,

This arrived last week and I thought it would go rather nicely with your 'toy' in progress.

That is a grand hull you have.

This is going to be great
